One primary surge protector must be used with each SLC wiring pair whenever SLC wiring runs
outside the building.
• Install primary protection only as shown in this document.
• Refer to NEC Article 800 and local building code requirements.
Additional primary surge suppressors may be added as required by the NEC. Add these additional
suppressors in series with the SLC wiring at the building entry/exit.
Wiring connected to the surge suppressor output must remain within the building while wiring con-
nected to the surge suppressor input may be routed outside the building as shown below.
B.2 Installation
Mounting of the surge suppressor must be inside the FACP enclosure or in a separate enclosure
listed for fire protective signaling use.
• Locate on an available stud and secure with nut.
• Unit is connected in series with the SLC Loop to protect the Control Panel.
• Provide a common ground to eliminate the possibility of a differential in ground potentials.
NOTE: Surge protection is not required in Canadian applications.
NOTE: For detailed information, refer to the Installation Instructions supplied with the unit.
