Appendix J AVPS-24 Power Expansion
General Description
The notification appliance power available from the control panel can be increased by three amperes when
adding an AVPS-24/AVPS-24E to the system. The AVPS-24/AVPS-24E must be mounted in the battery
compartment of the cabinet and the batteries must be relocated to the BB-17 Battery Box. The AVPS-24/
AVPS-24E supplies a maximum of 3.0 A to the notification appliances connected to circuits three and four
combined, however the maximum current from any one circuit is limited to 2.5 A. Since the AVPS-24/
AVPS-24E supplies special purpose (unfiltered, unregulated) power, only compatible notification appliances
listed in the Device Compatibility Document can be connected to circuits three and four.
AC Power
AC power required for the AVPS-24 is 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 1.0 A and AC power required for the AVPS-24E is
220/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 0.5 A.
Programming
The control panel must be programmed to supervise the AVPS-24/AVPS-24E. To program supervision for an
AVPS-24/AVPS-24E, enter a "Y" in the SYSTEM screen after "AVPS=". A control panel programmed for an
AVPS-24/AVPS-24E cannot be used in a combination Fire/Burglary application, since the AVPS-24/AVPS-24E
trouble input is the same input used to monitor the door tamper switch (STS-200).

Supply Calculations
Supply calculations for systems with an AVPS-24/AVPS-24E are as follows.
• Add 1.0 A for the AVPS-24 and 0.5 A for the AVPS-24E to the AC branch circuit current in Table A-1
• Do not include the load current on bell circuits 3 and 4 in the 5.0 A limitation in Table A-4 notes.
• Include the load current on bell circuits 3 and 4 in the 5.0 A limitation in Table A-6 notes.
System alarm current limitations with an AVPS-24/AVPS-24E installed follow:
• TB1, terminals 1 and 2 = 1.5 A
• TB1, terminals 3 and 4 = 0.5 A
• TB1, terminals 5 and 6 = 0.5 A
• TB1, terminals 3 and 4 combined with terminals 5 and 6 = 0.5 A
• All circuits on TB1 combined with TB2 terminals 1, 2, 3, and 4 = 5.0 A
• TB2, terminals 5, 6, 7 and 8 combined (bell circuits (NACs) 3 and 4) = 3.0 A
• TB2, any one circuit = 2.5 A
Installation
1. Mount the AVPS-24/AVPS-24E as shown in Figure J1.
2. Connect the AVPS-24/AVPS-24E and the control panel as follows:
Earth Ground (green): AVPS-24/AVPS-24E, TB1 terminal 6 connects to control panel TB7 terminal 3.
AC Hot (black): AVPS-24/AVPS-24E , TB1 terminal 5 connects to control panel TB7 terminal 1.
AC Neutral (white): AVPS-24/AVPS-24E, TB1 terminal 4 connects to control panel TB7 terminal 2.
Battery (–): Black wire from the battery cable connects to AVPS-24/AVPS-24E TB1 terminal 3.
Battery (+): Red wire from the battery cable connects to AVPS-24/AVPS-24E TB1 terminal 2.
