1.1.7 Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules
Part 15
This equipment was tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy; and if not installed
and used according to the instructions, can cause harmful interference to radio
communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in
which case the user is required to correct the interference at his or her own expense.
Part 68
The B430 module by Bosch Security Systems, Inc. is registered with the Federal
Communication Commission (FCC) under Part 68, for connection to the public telephone
system using an RJ31X or RJ38X phone line connection jack installed by the local telephone
company.
Do not connect registered equipment to party lines or coin-operated telephones. Notify the
local telephone company and provide the following information before connecting the control
panel to the telephone network:
– The particular line to which you connect the module
– Make (Bosch Security Systems, Inc.), model (B9512G/B8512G), and serial number of the
control panel
– FCC registration number: ESVAL00BB430
– Ringer eq: 0.0B
1.1.8 Industry Canada (IC)
ICES-003 - Information Technology Equipment
This Class B digital equipment meets all requirements of the Canadian interference-causing
equipment regulations.
Cet appareil numérique de la Class A respecte toutes les exifences de règlement sue le
matériel brouilleur du Canada.
CS-03 - Compliance Specification for Terminal Equipment
The B430 module by Bosch Security Systems, Inc. meets the applicable Industry Canada
technical specifications. The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is an indication of the
maximum number of devices allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The
termination of an interface may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the
requirement that the sum of the RENs of all the devices not exceed five.
Le présent matériel est conforme aux spécifications techniques applicables d'Industrie
Canada.
L'indice d'équivalence de la sonnerie (IES) sert à indiquer le nombre maximal de terminaux qui
peuvent être raccordés à une interface téléphonique. La terminaison d'une interface peut
consister en une combinaison quelconque de dispositifs, à la seule condition que la somme
d'indices d'équivalence de la sonnerie de tous les dispositifs n'excède pas cinq.
1.2 Lightning
The control panel design significantly reduces the adverse effects of lightning. Taking
installation precautions can further reduce these adverse effects.

Control Panels Certifications, approvals, listings, and safety | en 11
Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Installation and System Reference Guide 2016.06 | 08 | F.01U.303.996
1.2.1 Effects of lighting
Electronics involved in a direct lightning strike or near a lightning strike can show adverse
effects. When lightning strikes, several things happen:
– An electromagnetic wave spreads from the center point of the strike inducing high
voltages onto nearby conductors.
– The voltage changes substantially on electrical grounds near the lightning strike.
– High voltages are induced onto anything directly struck by lightning.
The effects of lightning can include trouble events, alarm events, and physical damage.
1.2.2 Installation precautions
To minimize the undesirable effects from lightning:
– Do not run wiring outside the building.
– If you install the unit in a metal building, keep the wiring at least 2 ft (0.61 m) away from
external metal surfaces. Make a proper earth ground connection.
– Earth ground the unit correctly. Do not use an electrical ground or telephone ground.
– Avoid running wires near telephone, data, or power lines. Locating control panel wiring at
least 2 ft (0.61 m) away helps reduce the effects of lightning.
– When your data lines must cross the path of AC or other wiring, cross perpendicular to
the lines.
1.2.3 Warranty
The warranty does not cover physical damage due to lightning.
