Battery capacity
The battery capacity depends on panel type and standby time. The standby time is
regulated by local code of praxis or the EN regulation.
The required battery size can be identified using the following calculation.
Moreover, the calculation indicates whether an external power supply is needed.

Standby current [A]
Alarm current [A]
If the total current of the outputs (Sounders, etc.) is higher than
500mA
, then an external
power supply is required.
In order to reduce the total current:
-
Power the output A&B from the external power supply (possible per card).
-
Move the Auxiliary output to the external power supply.
Choose the appropriate battery size depending on the calculated capacity.
