6-6
Before wiring from any type of power supply to notification appliances, check Tables 6-1
and 6-2 for wiring distances.
Table 6-1 lists the maximum distances from the NAC terminal block to the last appliance
in a Class A configuration, depending on wire gauge and current. Use Table 6-1 to
calculate wire distances for your application if you are using Class A wiring.

Notes:
Max Distance = distance from SPS to last appliance.
This table is calculated at 50°C.
Distances are based on a 3V drop, and take into account the worst-case
panel output voltage. These distances are worst case to allow for one
single load at the furthest point.
If circuit integrity wire is used instead of housing cable in a fire rated
enclosure, reduce wiring distances by 12m for every 3m of potential
exposure.
