A maximum of 24 Kidde Safety devices may be interconnected in a multiple station arrangement. The
interconnect system should not exceed the NFPA interconnect limit of 12 smoke alarms and/or 18 alarms
total (smoke, CO, Smoke/ CO Combination, heat, etc.). With 18 alarms interconnected, it is still possible to
interconnect up to a total of 6 remote signaling devices and / or relay modules.
•
The maximum wire run distance between the first and last unit in an
interconnected system is 305 m (1000 ft).
•
Figure 10-A illustrates interconnection wiring. Improper
connection will result in damage to the alarm, failure to operate, or
a shock hazard.
•
Make certain alarms are wired to a continuous (non-switched) power line.
note:
Use standard CSA-Listed household wire (as required
by local codes) available at all electrical supply stores and most
hardware stores.
