Notification Appliances—CH Series Chimes and Strobe Chimes    17

Use care and proper techniques when positioning the field wires in the backbox.  Be sure
to use the minimum required space and avoid undue stress on the product.  This is
especially important for stiff, heavy gauge wires and wires with thick insulation or
sheathing.
Do not use more lead length than required when terminating field wires.  Excess lead
length may result in insufficient wiring space for the signaling device.  Do not pass
additional wires (used for equipment other than the signaling device) through the
backbox.  Excessive wires may result in insufficient wiring space for the signaling device.
Verify electrical ratings specified in Tables 1 and 2 to ensure proper electrical input.
Verify chime wires are only connected to chime terminals and strobe wires are only
connected to strobe terminals.  Verify wiring at the panel, power supply, and/or NAC
control point is correct.

!

  CAUTION:

Equipment damage hazard.  Improper electrical input may
damage the device or cause it to malfunction.
