4.3  Battery Power
The batteries must be sealed lead acid type. Before connecting the batteries to the FACP, make certain that the interconnect cable 
between the batteries is not
 connected. Do not connect the battery jumper cable until the system is completely installed. Observe polarity 
when connecting the batteries. 
The control panel battery charge capacity is 7.0 to 35 AH. Use 12V batteries of the same AH rating. Determine the correct AH rating as 
per your current load calculation (see Section 3.7).
Wire batteries in series to produce a 24-volt equivalent. Do not parallel batteries to increase the AH rating. It is recommended that you 
replace batteries every five years.
