How to Wire and Mount the AC Powered Alarm
When installing an AC powered alarm (Model CFS10-AC), the mounting location is
determined by the position of the electrical box that will power the alarm. Electrical
power to the box must be disconnected prior to alarm connection and
installation!
With the AC power turned off, connect
the wire harness provided with the alarm.
Connect the black wire of the harness to
the black wire(s) in the electrical box.
