Applicable local authority laws and requirements must be respected where
modules and detectors are used on loops.
The fire panel is quite heavy once the batteries are installed. Use resistant fastening
elements.
The system must be installed as far away from other cables as possible to minimize
the risk of external interference. The use of stranded, shielded cable is
recommended.
Cable with a minimum section of 1.5 mm² and 250 VAC cable is recommended. The
cable length must not be longer than 2 km.
The fire panel must be connected to an external bipolar magneto-thermal switch.
Do not work on any connections without first disconnecting the external magneto-
thermal switch. Do not use the mains fuse to cut the power supply.
