Overview

The SC1008 Branch Circuit Emergency Lighting Transfer Switch (BCELTS) transfers a single lighting
circuit from its normal power source to an emergency power source in the event of the loss of normal
power or an external trigger (e.g., fire alarm).

The SC1008 BCELTS includes the following features and functions:

a front panel accessible push–and–hold Test Switch

a front panel accessible Laser Test, enabling remote testing with the use of a laser pointer (or
similar)

front panel status indicators for Normal Power (green) and Emergency Power (red)

a fire alarm dry contact input, which can be set for normally open or normally closed operation

an auxiliary relay for 0–10V or Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) control signals

Compliance

The SC1008 meets or exceeds the following regulatory standards:

UL Listed to UL 1008 for Branch Circuit Emergency Transfer Switch Equipment

cUL Listed to CSA C22.2 Emergency Transfer Switch Equipment

UL Listed to UL 2043 for plenum rated products

Complies with ANSI/NFPA 110, Standard for Emergency and Standby Power Systems
