(1) For a definition of ‘Standard’ and ‘Enhanced’ cable requirements and their different applications, refer to
BS 5839-1, Section 26. Enhanced cable is typically required for spur sounder outputs while standard cables
may be adequate for other fire-related I/O, provided there is diverse cable routing.
EMC Considerations
Following the above instructions and by using suitable screened cables EMC
problems will be avoided.
In particularly difficult EMC environments, or where non-preferred cabling is
used, it is possible to fit ferrite sleeves to cables entering the panel, in particular
the power supply input, sounder and auxiliary output cables.
The ferrite sleeves (A) should be fitted over all the conductor(s) and as close as
possible to the entry point of the cable. If required, use a cable tie (B) - not
supplied - to hold the ferrite in position.
If additional ferrites are required these can be purchased from your
supplier.
