Figure 11A: Main Fire Alarm Module Terminal Connections
When wiring devices, please keep in mind the following:
• All terminals are shown from the back of the main fire alarm board assembly (pointing towards the rear of the
enclosure).
• All power limited circuits must use type FPL, FPLR, or FPLP power limited cable.
• Initiating circuits are fully supervised and rated for 26 VDC, 3 ma standby, 1.5 vp-p ripple, 50 mA max. alarm.
They may be configured as required. The alarm threshold is 21 mA. Maximum loop resistance is 100 ohms, 50
ohms per side.
• Indicating circuits are fully supervised and rated for 24 VDC unfiltered 1.7 amp max. each They must be wired
as shown in the wiring tables on page 20.
• On the FA-204 & FA-204E, the auxiliary common supervisory relay contacts will act as a second set of common
alarm contacts if there are no initiating circuits set as supervisory.
• Initiating circuits must be all either Style B or D. If Style D is selected, cut the number of circuits in half.
ATTENTION:
Do not exceed power supply ratings:
•FA-201, FA-202, FA-204, total current for indicating circuits is 2.4 A max.
•FA-204E, total current for indicating circuits is 5 A max.
