Feed the cable into the Control Panel via a metal IP65 EMC gland supplied, ensuring that the metal
prongs make a good contact with the exposed cable screen as shown. The gland should be fixed in place
using a toothed nut to cut through the Control Panel paint.
The relays should be connected to the Alarm Monitoring System, AMS, to initiate the required response
when the relay is activated.
2.6.3 Control Panel to Junction Box Connections
Control Panel Connections
The cables from the Control Panel to each Junction Box should be of the following types:
Power Cable:
2 Cores + Earth, CSA 2.5mm
2
(50/0.25mm), flexible stranded bare copper conductors, low smoke
halogen free insulation, cores laid up, braided screen, low smoke halogen free sheath grey, outside
diameter 9.8mm, operating temperature 0

Approved cables
Lapp Kabel CY cable 3 core 2.5mm

Communications Cable:
2 Twisted low capacitance pairs, 27(7) AWG tinned copper conductors, foam polyolefin insulation, each
pair foil screened with a tinned copper drain wire, low smoke halogen free sheath grey, outside
diameter 8.1mm, operating temperature 0
o
C to 70

C.
Approved cables
Beldon 9729
Helkama RFE-HF(i) 2x2x0.75
FS Cables 2402PIFFH
Jinro 60V RCOP(IS)
At the Control Panel strip the power and communications cables to the required length. The cables
should be long enough to reach easily from the gland to the terminal and run tidily around the edge of
the Control Panel. Leave approximately 35mm of screen and fold it back over the outer insulation.
Alternatively, for the power cable remove approximately 1cm of the outer sheath to expose the cable
screen as shown see Figure 21
