Calculating the System Current Draw Power Supply Calculations
6.3.2 How to use Table 6.2 to calculate system current draws
1. Enter the quantity of devices in both columns.
2. Enter the DC current draw where required. Refer to the Device Compatibility Document for
compatible devices and their current draw.
3. Calculate the current draws for each in both columns.
4. Sum the total current for each column.
5. Copy the totals from Column 1 and Column 2 to Table 6.3 on page 74.
Following are the types of current that can be entered into Table 6.2:
 Calculation Column 1 - The standby current load that the audio panel must support (from
the batteries) during a non-fire alarm condition and a loss of AC power.
 Calculation Column 2 - The alarm current draw that the audio panel must support (from
the batteries) during a fire alarm condition and a loss of AC power
Table 6.2 contains two columns for calculating current draws. For each column, calculate the cur-
rent and enter the total (in amps) in the bottom row. When finished, copy the totals from Calcula-
tion Column 1 and Calculation Column 2 to Table 6.3 on page 74.

1 In backup configurations, the optional ACC-AAM25 draws no current in alarm.
2 Refer to the Device Compatibility Document for compatible devices and their current draws.
3 The FC-XRM70 Transformer Module draws no current in standby or alarm.
4 The FC-LPS Local Playback Speaker Module draws no current in standby or alarm.
5 The ACC-25/50DA will turn off the background music in the event AC power is lost in order to conserve
battery power.
