Mounting & Wiring Alarms - Ei Electronics Ei141 Installation Instructions Manual

(b) a separately electrically protected, regularly used local lighting
circuit.
Alarms should be connected on a single final circuit, unless the
means of interconnection is by radio signals (e.g. RadioLINK).
(See BS 5839-6: 2004 for further information)
Note: The Ei Electronics RadioLINK Base Ei168RC (for use
with Ei161RC/164RC/166RC models only) can be used to
eliminate interconnect wiring, make system extensions and
provide simple and cost effective compliance with BS 5839-6:
2004.
4.1 Mounting & Wiring Alarms
1. Select a location complying with the advice in
previous sections (see pages 4-10).
2. Disconnect the AC mains supply from the circuit that
is going to be used.
3. Lift off the wiring cover as shown in Figure 3.
The house wiring must be connected to the terminal
block on the mounting plate as follows:
L: Live - connect to the house wires coloured brown
or marked L.
FOAM CEILING GASKET
Figure 3
N: Neutral - connect to the house wires coloured blue
or marked N.
See page 14 for information on interconnection.
Note: Wiring must be installed in compliance with local
regulations.
Warning: Mixing the Live and Neutral connections
when interconnecting alarms will damage all the
alarms - ensure that the same colours are used
throughout the premises for Live, Neutral and
Interconnect wires.
We strongly recommend that you check for the following
before connecting the alarm:
• check for Live and Neutral using a two probe tester.
• check for Live using a neon tester.
• check that the Interconnect wire is NOT connected to
Live, Neutral or Earth. Do not use an Earth wire for
the Interconnect line.
