  • Page 12: Power Supply

    ZONESENSE EN54 INSTALLATION COMMISSIONING & OPERATION Power Supply The power supply equipment (PSE) consists of a primary power supply and battery standby if required. The primary power supply derives the appropriate voltages to run the FACP and charge the batteries (if fitted) from the available mains supply. In the event of a failure of the mains supply the PSE automatically switches over to the standby rechargeable sealed lead acid batteries to power the FACP.
