Installation Requirements
Calculating Current Draw and Standby Battery
5.
Make sure that the total alarm current you calculated, including the current for the panel itself, does not exceed 6.0 A.
This is the maximum alarm current for the FCP-300 control panel. If the current is above 6.0 A you will need to use a
notification power expander(s) such as the Fike FIK-5496 NAC Expander, to distribute the power loads, so that the FCP-
300 or the power expanders do not exceed their power rating. Refer to the Current Draw Worksheets provided with the
FIK-5496 manual so you do not exceed their power requirements.
6.
Alternatively, you may network additional FCP-300ECS’ to obtain additional power.
7.
Complete the remaining instructions in the appropriate Current Draw Worksheet for determining the battery size
requirements.
3.7.2 Current Draw Worksheet for FIK SLC Devices
Use Table 3.3 to determine the current requirements during thalarm/battery standby operation when the SLC devices are
installed. TheFCP-300FACP supports up to a total of 300 SLC devices, consisting of any combination of Sensors and Mod-
ules.
