After the field devices are connected but before connection to the PARC-3
units or the central control point, again test each conductor for shorts to ground or the
conduit system. If this test is acceptable, you may finish the system connections.

Recommended wiring types and manufacturers are listed below. The wire
listed has been tested and certified for use with this system. If other wire is selected,
verify that specifications are comparable to the wire listed.
3.1.9.1 Wiring from 03RM receiver to PARC-3 transponder; 3 individually
shielded twisted pairs (shields should be drain wire type), #22 AWG stranded
conductors in overall jacket. Belden Catalog No. 8777, West Penn Catalog No.

Receiver (03RM) Installation
3.2.1
The receiver has a depth of approximately 1-1/4 inches, so a deep mounting
box with a minimum 2-inch depth is required. Critical mounting dimensions are shown
in Figure 3-1. Typical mounting boxes are as follows:
4” square, w/two-gang ring (Bowers #4-SDW and #408 or equivalent)
4” square, two-gang box, 2-1/8” deep (Bowers #132-W or equivalent)
NOTE: A mounting box deeper than 2-1/8" is recommended for the 03RM/IV
for additional cable clearance.
