Connecting the AC Transformer and Battery
This product uses the 1451 transformer , which must be hardwired into the
premises electrical system. Therefore, we recommend wiring all zones and
expansion modules according to each section's instructions
before powering up
the system for programming and testing. Refer to
Section 17: FINAL POWER
UP for specific instructions on how to connect the transformer and backup
battery.
If desired, you can wire, program, and test each section individually by powering
up temporarily for programming and testing each section before final power up.
Refer to
Section 17: FINAL POWER UP for battery standby calculations and
battery selection table.
Panel Earth Ground Connections
1. Connect the earth ground post inside the 1451 enclosure to a good earth
ground (use grounding methods specified in the National Electric Code).
Use a green nut (supplied) to secure the wire to the ground post. The earth
ground wire should be the only wire under this nut.
2. Run a 16AWG wire from this post to the panel’s earth ground terminal
(terminal 30). Use a second green nut (supplied) to secure this wire to the
ground post.This method of connection avoids ground loops that may occur
when the 1451 and panel are connected to different earth ground systems.
The panel requires this connection in order for its lightning transient protection
devices and earth ground supervision to function properly.
