FIRECLASS Fire detection system Introduction
Installation Guide Doc. version 2.0 5
1 Introduction
Use this guide as a source of useful information when
you install a FireClass FC700 series based alarm sys-
tem.
The guide sets out a recommended series of steps to
follow. These correspond to the section headings.
Not all the steps are covered in detail, as this would be
beyond the scope of the guide, and these details are
provided in other documentation (see also “What this
Manual does not cover”) below. Rather, the guide pro-
vides an overall sequence and context for the installa-
tion.
1.1 Keywords and symbols
In this manual symbols are used in the margin to indi-
cate warnings, and also ‘hints and tips’ type informa-
tion.
These are explained in Table 1.
1.2 Who this Manual is for
This guide is aimed at suitably qualified technicians
experienced in the Installation of fire detection and
alarm systems, who have also received training.
1.3 What this Manual does not
cover
The guide does not provide information on the follow-
ing:
System design.
The system must already be designed and planned
for the specific site, in terms of cable routing, device
selection and layout, mains supply etc.
For further information see the FireClass FC700
series panels Product Application and Design Infor-
mation manual. This includes details of optional
modules that can be fitted.
Local regulations.
For example cable specifications and panel siting
restrictions are expected to be covered by local
regulations, and as these factors should have been
incorporated into the design, they are excluded from
the guide.
Local regulations are expected to cover, for
example:
– Wiring specifications
– Panel siting restrictions
– Provision for mains isolation
– Earthing arrangements
– Environmental conditions
– Qualifications of personnel.
For example there may be a stipulation that the
connections for the mains supply and protective
earth can only be made by a qualified electrician.
Installation of detector bases and ancillaries.
Refer to the respective installation (wiring) instruc-
tions.
Installation of optional modules.
These products have their own specific instructions;
however this guide does provide supplemental
information for installation in the FireClass FC700
series panel where necessary.
Procedures covered by another of the guides are
available for the FireClass FC700 series fire panel
range.
For example in the FireClass FC700 series Panels
Commissioning Instructions, there are various tests
to be performed using operator functions as
described in the FireClass FC700 series User Man-
ual.

4.1 Mounting a FC702/708/718 panel to
the wall
After checking that the mounting location is suitable,
you attach the mounting plate of the unit to the wall,
then attach the panel to this plate.
1 Check the mounting location.
– The alarm system units are not weatherproof.
Check that the location is indoors, dry and free
from excessive dust.
– Determine the mounting positions and as a
double check, use the dimensions in Fig. 2 for a
FC702 panel and Fig. 3 for a FC708/FC718 panel.
2 Fix the mounting plate to the wall
– Hold the mounting plate up to the wall and mark
on the wall a position for the upper mounting
hole. Make sure that the plate is the right way up.
See the arrow pointing upwards on the mounting
plate. Refer to Fig. 1.
– Drill a hole to accept the supplied wall plug and
insert the plug.
– Fix the plate into the upper drill positions just
enough to allow you to mark drill positions on the
wall for the two lower holes.
– Move the mounting plate out of the way and drill
the two lower holes.
– Insert the wall plugs and fix the mounting plate to
the wall with the screws.
– Tighten all of the screws and check that the
mounting plate is secure.
3 Remove knockouts from the unit housings where
necessary, as required by the cabling runs.
– For example, loop wiring needs access at the top
of the panel.
– You will need to make provision for mains cables,
earth cables, DC power cables and battery cables,
for example.
– Fit the knocked out holes with suitable cable
glands. To maintain IP30 pass test status, use the
M20 cable gland with a locknut.
4 Hang and fix the panel on the mounting plate.
– Loosely screw the top two bolts on the mounting
plate already on the wall.
– Hang the panel on the loose screws and screw
the bottom two bolts. Refer to Fig. 4 or Fig. 6.
DANGER
The FireClass FC700 series control panel
contains high voltages, producing a
danger of death or serious injury while
working on the panel.

FIRECLASS Fire detection system Connect the Mains Cable and Protective Earths
Installation Guide Doc. version 2.0 11
4.2 Connect the Mains Cable
and Protective Earths
How to connect the Mains cable and protective
earth
1 Make sure the Mains cable is not connected to the
supply, or that the supply is isolated.
2 On the PSU, locate the Mains connector at the top
of the unit. If the protective cover is fitted to this con-
nector, remove it.
3 Connect the Mains cable to its connector. Fix the
Mains cable using the clip near the Mains connector.
4 Connect the protective earth conductor of the Mains
to a terminal of the housing earthing point.
5 Connect a second earth wire (separate from the
mains lead earth) to a terminal of the housing earth-
ing point. This must be 2.5 mm2or greater in cross
sectional area. Connect this to a suitable earth bond-
ing point.
NOTE: Most AC power distribution systems will
include a low impedance protective earth; however
IT power distribution systems either have no earth
or high impedance to earth. In these cases, a local
low impedance protective earth is required.
6 Re-fit the PSU Mains connector cover.
7 Make sure system 0 V is not connected to the earth,
as there is an earth fault monitoring circuit.
5 Install the Loops
As detailed below, the procedure is to install the loops
into the building, making temporary wiring arrange-
ments for testing. Then, once testing has been com-
pleted, the final loop connections can be made.
5.1 Run and Temporarily Connect the
Loops
1 Run the loop wiring around the building, and wire in
the bases, according to the system plan. Similarly,
run any other wiring required for ancillary modules.
Clearly label the loop conductors as being positive or
negative.
At this stage, do not wire in any isolator bases, or
other modules, or fit the detectors. This is to avoid
potential damage caused by the high voltage insula-
tion checks. Use strip connectors (Fig. 9) for any
temporary connections, to preserve continuity.
For connection details see the individual leaflets or
labels provided with the products.
DANGER
Danger of death or serious injury.
Before working on the Mains
connection, verify that the cabling is not
live. Ensure the cabling is not connected
to the supply, or that the supply is
isolated.
DANGER
The FireClass Control Panel contains
high voltages, producing a danger of
death or serious injury.
You must ensure adequate earthing of
the system.
In addition to any earthing requirements
in the local regulations, additionally you
must, also follow these stipulations:
All exposed metalwork and cabling
conduits must be returned to earth at
the control panel.
The control panel housing must be
earthed, following the procedures as
mentioned in this guide.
WARNING
To ensure proper operation of the
control panel a second earth, separate
from the mains lead earth, must be
installed. This is described below.

FIRECLASS Fire detection system Make Insulation Checks
Installation Guide Doc. version 2.0 12
2 At the control panel, feed the loop cables through
the appropriate knockouts. Use suitable cable glands
as needed. To maintain IP30 pass test status, use a
M20 cable gland with a locknut. Leave generous
tails of wire (approximately 600 mm length).
3 Connect the loop wiring tails to a strip type connec-
tor block, with screw terminals, as shown in Fig. 9.
Leave the wiring loose within the panel.
4 Ensure that the loop screens and metal sheath are
not connected to the addressable loop conductors
and are left floating relative to earth.
5.1.1 Interface Conventional Detectors
If necessary, use a FC410DIM or FC410DDM interface
unit to interface conventional detectors on a loop spur.
For details refer to the documentation for the FC410-
DIM or FC410DDM unit.
5.2 Make Insulation Checks
1 Note that a record should be made of the measure-
ments below, to be handed over to the customer.
2 Ensure your insulation checks will be at 500 V (set
your meter accordingly).
3 Make the usual insulation measurements. For exam-
ple measure the resistance between the two wires
of the loops, and the resistance between the loop
wires and earth.
4 For values less than 1 MOhm this is a failure and the
panel will not operate. In this case investigate and
correct the problem.
5 For values between 1 MOhm and 30 MOhm, inves-
tigate and try to increase the resistance value to
30 MOhm.
5.3 Wire in Remaining Modules
At this stage, wire the remaining modules and isolator
bases into the loops.
5.4 Measure Loop Resistance
1 Note that a record should be made of the measure-
ments below, to be handed over to the customer.
2 Make the usual loop resistance measurements.
3 Check whether the values are acceptably close to
the anticipated values calculated at the design stage.
4 Check that the resistances of the loop positive and
negative wires are the same (within acceptable lim-
its). If there is a problem, rectify it.
5 Remove the temporary connections that you had
made to the connector block, (Fig. 9).
5.5 Fully Connect the Loops
1 Wire the loop wires into their connectors (Fig. 10).
For the pin-out details, use labelling for the loop con-
nections on the board. (The loops are connected to
the FC-FI board or the PLX800 board, if fitted).
2 Plug the connectors to their board sockets.
