Wiring Instructions for AC quick
Connector Harness
CAUTION:
Turn off the main power to
the circuit before wiring the alarm.
•
For alarms that are used as single station,
DO NOT CONNECT THE RED WIRE TO
ANYTHING. Leave the red wire insulating
cap in place to make certain that the red
wire cannot contact any metal parts or the
electrical box.
•
When alarms are hardwire interconnected,
all interconnected units must be powered
from a single circuit.
•
A maximum of 24 Kidde Safety devices may
be interconnected in a multiple station
arrangement. The interconnect system
should not exceed the NFPA interconnect
limit of 12 smoke alarms and/or 18 alarms
total (smoke, CO, Smoke/ CO Combination,
heat, etc.). With 18 alarms interconnected,
it is still possible to interconnect up to a
total of 6 remote signaling devices and/
or relay modules (see below for details on
interconnecting Kidde devices).
•
Figure 9-C illustrates interconnection
wiring. Improper connection will result in
damage to the alarm, failure to operate, or a
shock hazard.
•
Make certain alarms are wired to a continu-
ous (non-switched) power line.
NOTE:
Use standard UL Listed household wire (as required by local codes) available at all electrical supply stores
and most hardware stores.
NOTE:
AC power should be turned off at this stage.
