    Do not overlook adequate lightning protection. Lightning damage commonly occurs from three sources: Through alarm loop wiring Through AC power inputs Through earth ground or power ground connections The 1500 System has substantial lightning protection incorporated in all three areas. However, proper lightning protection for AC power must be accomplished where the wire enters the building.
