5. Installation
THIS SMOKE ALARM MUST BE INSTALLED BY QUALIFIED (LICENSED) ELECTRICIANS
ONLY.
Wiring Requirements
• All connections must be installed by a qualified electrician and be in accordance with the relevant
requirements of the SAA Wiring Rules AS 3000 Standards.
• The appropriate power source is 240V AC 50Hz continuous single phase sine wave current
supplied from a non-switchable circuit.
• Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless the combination (alarm and guard)
has been evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.
WARNING: This alarm cannot be operated from power derived from a square wave
or modified square wave inverter. These type of inverters are sometimes used to
supply power to the structure in off-grid installations, such as solar or wind derived
power sources. These power sources produce high peak voltages that will damage the
alarm.
