INTERCONNECTING
SMOKE ALARMS
•Use 1.5mm2 minimum solid or stranded wire with a rating of 230V. When
interconnecting, maximum wire length between any two is 450 m for 1.5mm2 or 1200 m for 2.5mm2 (20 OHMS loop resistance).
•This smoke alarm may be interconnected with as many as 35 other Models GC240, I240C, PG240, PAD240, PADC240, IAR230C, and PAR230 smoke alarms. DO NOT connect to any other type or model smoke alarm.
•Connect smoke alarms to a single AC branch circuit. If local codes do not permit, be sure the neutral wire is common to both phases. Wiring must conform to IEE Regulations for electrical installation.
