B501 Installation And Wiring Guidelines
All wiring must be installed in compliance with all applicable local codes and any special requirements of the local authority having jurisdiction. Proper wire gauges should be used. The conductors used to connect smoke detectors to control panels and accessory devices should be color-coded to reduce the likelihood of wiring errors. Improper connections can prevent a system from responding properly in the event of a fire.
For signal wiring (the wiring between interconnected detectors and modules), it is recommended that the wiring be no smaller than 18 AWG (0.823 mm²). Wire sizes up to 12 AWG (3.31 mm²) may be used with the base.
B501 Alarm system control panels have specifications for allowable loop resistance. Consult the control panel specifications for the total loop resistance allowed before wiring the detector loops.
Make wiring connections by stripping about 3 /8" (10 mm) of insulation from the wire end (use strip gauge molded in base).
