NFPA Class X SLC Using Isolator Modules SLC Circuits with Isolators
4.4  NFPA Class X SLC Using Isolator Modules
Class X operation requires using isolator modules (or a combination of isolator modules and isolator bases) before and after each device. 
Flanking each device with an isolator provides fault protection to all other devices on the loop. 
• T-tapping is NOT allowed within the Class X wiring configuration.
• When a detector base or pull station is used, install isolator modules on both sides of the device.
• Connections between isolator modules and the device they isolate must be “close-nippled” conduit, within 3 feet (91.44 cm).
