    5.1 MOUNTING THE FIRE ALARM CONTROL PANEL The Nittan evolution 1 comes with many cable entry holes. If another entry hole is required, it is strongly recommended that the panel door is removed to avoid accidental damage. Also, the back plate which holds the loop cards and power supply should be removed and stored in a safe place.
  • Page 25: Mains Wiring Recommendations

    Nittan evolution 1 - Single loop touch screen panel 5.4 MAINS WIRING RECOMMENDATIONS The Mains supply to the FACP is fixed wiring, using Fire resisting 3-core cable (Between 1 mm² and 2.5mm²), fed from an isolating double pole switch fused spur, fused at 3A. IT SHOULD NOT BE CONNECTED THROUGH AN RCD. This should be secure from unauthorised operation and be marked ‘FIRE ALARM: DO NOT SWITCH OFF’.
  • Page 26: Connecting The Batteries

    Nittan evolution 1 - Single loop touch screen panel MAKE SURE ANY SPARE ENTRY HOLES THAT HAVE BEEN OPENED, BUT NOT USED ARE COVERED WITH SUITABLE GROMMETS OR BLANKING SCREWS It is advisable to apply power to the panel before connecting any devices, to check for correct operation, and to familiarise yourself with the fire alarm panels controls.
