5.
Connect conduit fittings or bushings as needed through the knockouts provided on the top and
bottom of the SAFEPATH
®
Panel.
Field Wiring Connections
6.
Install field wiring in conduit when required, following the most current National Electrical Code
(NFPA-70) and local codes for the type of system being installed. Make all necessary
connections at any additional wiring or junction boxes.
7.
Wire all ancillary equipment, power connections, and Fire Alarm Control Panel correctly and
prepare all wires for hookup to the SAFEPATH
®
Panel. Do not connect Ancillary equipment or
NAC speaker and strobe appliance wiring to the SAFEPATH
Panel. This will be done
starting with Step 13 of this procedure.
8.
Connect supplied 10K Ohm, ¼ Watt test resistors to Strobe and Audio NAC Circuit output
connections on Motherboard. (If SALL-15S amplifier module is being used, connect a 10K Ohm
¼ Watt test resistor to the SPK AMP terminals also. See Figure 3-1 on Page 3-2 for location.
Figure 3-2 is an enlarged picture of the referred area.

CAUTION: Provide proper strain relief for all wiring not in conduit
.
1. Connect the SAFEPATH
Panel to earth ground, following the National Electrical Code and local
codes for the type of system being installed.
Wire gauge selection of the earth ground wiring should involve consideration of all factors, including
maximum allowable wire resistance and length. The panel is tied to earth ground by connecting the
ground terminals to an earth ground. The location of the ground terminals within the panel is shown
in Figure 3-17 on Page 3-15.
CAUTION: Do not connect input voltage to any equipment until the field wiring has been tested,
inspected and approved.
1. Check the integrity of all field wiring. Confirm that the specified cable is installed, and that there is
continuity between required points (no open circuits), with no unwanted shorts to other conductors,
chassis, or earth ground.
a. Verify that the field wiring complies with the instructions of this manual and the detailed wiring
diagram prepared for this installation.
b. Ensure that no unwanted voltages are present on circuit conductors and ground.
c. Test all ungrounded connectors for electrical isolation from ground.
Measure and record the resistance of each NAC circuit. Conduct this test under reverse polarity
conditions.
1. Install Amplifier Module(s) (SAA-40S, 80S/SE or SALL-15S) if removed.
