WARNING
Electrocution and Fire Hazards with Improperly Installed and Grounded
Field Wiring!
Improperly installed/grounded field wiring poses FIRE & ELECTROCUTION hazards. To avoid
these hazards, the user MUST follow requirements for field wiring installation and grounding
as described in NEC and local/state electrical codes. All field wiring MUST be performed by
qualified personnel. Failure to follow these requirements could result in death or serious injury.
Wiring Guidelines
• Use 18 AWG Trane purple-shielded communication wire for BACnet installations.
• Link limit of 4,000 ft and 60 devices maximum (without a
repeater).
• Use a Trane BACnet termination
on each end of the link.
• Use daisy chain topology (refer to Figure 1, p. 18).
• Maintain polarity.
