nonpower-limited wiring. Refer to NFPA 70, article 760, of
the National Electrical Code.
3. Verify that the installed batteries are the proper capacity for
the application.
4. With the batteries disconnected, verify that the supply’s full

verify that a power supply trouble is annunciated, and that
the supply’s full alarm load can be sustained by the batteries.
6. Verify that the battery charger properly charges the batteries
connected to both the primary and booster power supplies to
80% capacity within 24 hours.
Booster power supplies
1. Verify that all components are installed using accepted
workmanship standards.
2. Verify adequate separation between power-limited and
nonpower-limited wiring.
3. Verify that the installed batteries are the proper capacity for

4. With the batteries disconnected, verify that the supply’s full
alarm load can be sustained by the power supply without the
batteries connected.
5. With the batteries connected, disconnect the AC source and
verify that a power supply trouble is annunciated, and that
