Cable Installation
Each of the speaker assemblies is designed for bottom cable entry, where two ¾-inch conduit entries are
located. Field wiring can enter the speaker housing using the installed ¾-inch NPT cable bushing
(bottom right), or with rigid or flexible conduit by removing the installed bushing. The ¾-inch male
conduit plug (bottom left) can be removed for additional conduit connections. Refer to Figure 8. When
conduit entries are closed and sealed, the speaker is completely rain-tight.

Install the necessary cable for wiring the speaker. Two pairs are required for wiring to the audio input
terminals for the Model 13353 (one audio, one page closure) in Generic or DTMF/Manual Switch modes.
Two conductors are required for supplying external 15 V dc power to all three models of the speaker. A
minimum No. 22 AWG-conductor is recommended for audio and page control and a minimum No. 20
AWG-conductor is recommended for 15 V dc power.
Power
The Addressable Amplified Speaker requires 15 V dc for operation, which can be supplied through the
power supply provided with each speaker or the use of a weatherproof power supply, Model 190-002PS.
The Model XB001 External Battery Enclosure with 40201-008 Battery and the internal Model BB133
Battery Backup Kit are also available for providing a 15 V dc source. These options are discussed in
greater detail in the Field Installed Option section of this manual, beginning on page 48.
