Choose a suitable mounting hole on the Isolator Base to secure with screws onto the
ceiling. Do not peel off the foam at the bottom of the base. This foam is to prevent air flow
movement around it from affecting the Smoke Alarm.
Active
Connect the Brown wire to the terminal marked with the letter “L” or coloured red or brown
and the appropriate terminal on the RFIP Termination Board.
Neutral / Battery Negative
The Smoke/Heat Alarms are wired according to whether the isolate function is
incorporated in the system.
Without isolate function - 3 Wire Systems: If the alarm Isolate facility is not required,
the Smoke / Heat Alarm field wiring is terminated to TB2 on the Main Control and
Termination Board mounted on the rear of the enclosure. Connect Active (brown) to “A”,
Neutral (blue) to “N” and Interconnect (white) to “I” (refer to Drawing No. F563).
Note for TL Series Smoke Alarms only: The two blue wires must remain linked.
With isolate function - 4 Wire Systems: If the alarm Isolate facility is required, the Smoke
/ Heat Alarms will be terminated to TB1 on the Main Control and Termination Board
mounted on the rear of the enclosure. To terminate the Smoke / Heat Alarms in a 4 wire
system. Connect Active to “A”, Battery negative to “N1”, Neutral to “N2” and Interconnect
to “I”.
Warning: DO NOT INTERCHANGE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE AND NEUTRAL WIRES,
THIS MAY DAMAGE THE ALARM.
Interconnection
The common interconnect wire from the Smoke / Heat alarms is terminated in TB1 in “I”
terminal as shown in Figure 11.
Note: As the battery negative is referenced to the neutral therefore the interconnect
cable must be treated as LV.
In the discontinued TL series Alarms, the two blue wires in the plug are supplied joined, this is to disconnect
the battery when the plug is removed. The two wires must be separated when isolate feature is required.
Mixing the Active and Neutral (or Battery –Ve)
connections will damage the alarm.
Ensure that the same colors are used throughout the
premises for Active, Neutral, Battery negative and
Interconnect wires.
