7.4 Wiring a Style Z NAC (Four-Wire) with Addressable Control Modules
Figure 7.5 depicts a supervised and power-limited NFPA Style Z (Class A) Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC) using the FCM-1 mod-
ule. In the sample wiring drawing below, polarized alarm notification appliances are shown connected to the module in a four-wire con-
figuration.
1.
See “Power Considerations” on page 58 for information on supervising 24 VDC power.
2.
Each module can control 2 amps of resistive load (on electronic devices) or 1 amp of inductive load (on mechanical bells and
horns).
3.
A power supervision relay is required only on the last module of the power run unless:
• using the no-relay alternative wire method; see Figure A.2, “Alternate: 2-Address Method of Supervising a 24 VDC Circuit”.
• using a panel with FlashScan type
IDs that provide built-in power supervision. Refer to the panel installation documentation for
a list of type codes.
4.
Do not T-Tap or branch a Style Z circuit.
5.
Do not loop wiring under the screw terminals of any notification appliance. To maintain supervision, break the wire run at each
device.
6.
Refer to the
Device Compatibility Document
for compatible notification appliances and relays.
