Wiring the Control Panel
WARNING: ELECTRICITY CAN KILL
BEFORE connecting the control panel
ALWAYS disconnect the supply at the consumer unit.
If in ANY doubt consult a qualified electrician.
1)
ONLY connect the mains supply to the mains terminal block, NEVER
connect the mains supply directly to the PCB.
2)
ALWAYS refer to National Wiring Regulations when conducting installation.
3)
An appropriate and readily accessible disconnection device (e.g. an
unswitched fused spur) MUST be provided as part of the installation.
4)
The disconnection device must NOT be fitted in a flexible cord.
5)
Where identification of the neutral in the mains supply is NOT possible a
two-pole disconnection device MUST be used.
6)
The building mains supply MUST incorporate appropriate short-circuit
backup protection (e.g. a fuse or circuit breaker) of High Breaking Capacity
(HBC, at least 1500A).
7)
Use mains cable of adequate carrying capacity for the rated current (i.e. at
least 0.75mm
2
).
1)
Although the
Veritas
has been designed for maximum compatibility, for
optimum performance, it is highly recommended that the
Veritas
should be
used with Texecom's range of detectors, sounders and batteries.
2)
The control panel is supplied with links fitted across the eight zones (Z1 -
Z8), the Global System Tamper (TAMP) and Bell Tamper (SAB C, D) to
simulate closed circuits:
a)
These links are removed during installation as each zone is connected.
b)
If a zone is not required then the link should be left in place.
3)
Older fridges & freezers can be a source of interference as their motor
suppression components age. Avoid connecting the panel to the same ring
or spur as a fridge or freezer.
