1.7 Cabling
Cabling Instructions
All wiring should comply with current IEE wiring regulations (BS7671) or the applicable local wiring
regulations. Note also the requirements of EN54-14 for cabling and interconnection of a fire detection and
alarm system.
EMC Requirements: To meet the EMC requirements of the European Directives, it is necessary to
ensure that a screened or metal sheathed cable is used.
Cable conductor size should be a minimum of 0.5mm
2
. Terminals accept one 0.5 to 2.5mm
2
stranded or
solid conductor.
Cables should be brought into the back box through the 20mm knockouts provided on the top face and
base. Ensure that all openings in the back box are closed off before connecting power to the panel.
Mains Supply
The supply to the panel must be provided with a suitable and readily-accessible, double-pole, mains-
disconnect device. The mains supply must be suitably fused and rated according to the specifications.
Always ensure that the mains cables are brought into the back box separately to the low-voltage wiring.
All low-voltage cables should have a minimum 300Vac rating.
The termination of earth mains wiring must be done before the termination of any external cable
screens.
Cable Screen Wires
Cables should be screened. Screen wires should be terminated inside the back box as follows:
a. Screen tails should be of sufficient length to connect to the earth post at the commissioning
stage. Once all screen wires have been terminated, ensure that a good earthing bond is
created.
b. Use insulation sleeving on the tails between the cable entry position and the earth post. Run
the tails close to the rear wall of the back box.
Cable Terminations
This section provides guidance on where to bring cables into the back box for ease of termination.
a. The mains supply should be brought into the control panel such that the live (L) and neutral
(N) cable path to the mains termination block is kept as short as possible. This must be done
before terminating all other panel wiring.
b. All zone and ancillary cable terminations should be brought into the panel at suitable
positions and routed tidily between entry and termination points.
Quality of Cable and of Cable Installation
It is important that good quality cable is used, and that correct installation techniques are followed. In
general, the following cable installation requirements must be met:
a. All cable sections must be circular to allow effective cable clamping using the cable glands.
b. The cable must be screened (sheathed) to provide protection against Radio Frequency
Interference (RFI) and the screen must be connected to the earthing point in the back box
c. The screen must be continuous.
d. Cable recommended for use is MICC with a LSF PVC overcovering, a fire resilient cable to
BS7629 or PVC/SWA/PVC to BS6387.
