SLC Performance Introduction
1.6 SLC Performance
SLC performance depends on the type of circuit (Style 4, Style 6, or Style 7) and the components
on the circuit.
Wiring style requirements are determined by national and local codes. Consult with the Authority
Having Jurisdiction before wiring the SLC. The table below (derived from NFPA 72-1999) lists
the trouble conditions that result when a fault exists on an SLC.
Table 1.2 SLC Performance
1.7 Surge Suppression
One primary surge protector must be used with each SLC wiring pair whenever SLC wiring runs
outside the building. For detailed information refer to “Surge Suppression” on page 64.
1.8 LED Operation
The table below lists the LED operation on the various devices on an SLC.
NOTE: SLC operation meeting Style 7 requirements isolates each device on the SLC from faults
that may occur within other areas of the SLC.
