Figure 10. Alarm Contact Connections
The screw-down type terminal strip can accept #16 to #30 AWG copper wire. Screw-down
terminal alarm wires may be terminated with spade-type compression lugs (maximum width
0.20 inches/5.08 mm) or the wire insulation may be stripped back from the wire end and the
bare wire looped under the screw head. Use a torque screw driver to tighten the terminal screws
to 8 pound-force inches (0.9 Newton meters).
The wire-wrap terminal strip can accept #22 to #26 AWG solid copper wire. Strip back the
insulation approximately 1.5 inches (38.1 mm) before inserting the wire into the wire-wrap tool.
3.5 Output Power Connections
Output power is supplied to the protected equipment through the output power terminal blocks.
Each terminal block consists of eight pairs of screw down terminals equipped with 8-32 screws.
The screw-down terminals are used for connecting the BATT (battery) and RTN (return) output
power wiring to the protected equipment. Copper wire in sizes ranging from #8 to #16 AWG
may be used for the output power wiring. The output power wires may be terminated with
spade-type compression lugs (maximum width 0.378 inches) or the insulation may be stripped
back and the bare wire looped under the screw head.
Two output power terminal blocks, one for power bus A and one for power bus B, are provided.
Connect each pair of output wires to the panel as shown in
Figure 11 . The terminal pairs are
numbered to correspond with each installed circuit breaker. When fewer than eight circuit
breakers are installed in the corresponding breaker mounting slots, the extra screw terminals are
not connected to the bus and cannot be used. Use a torque screwdriver to tighten the terminal
screws to 15 pound-force inches (1.7 Newton meters) of torque.
