Installation Procedures
There are a few considerations that you should be aware of when installing
N2 Bus wiring throughout a building:
•
Follow all National Electrical Code (NEC) and local code restrictions.
•
Do not exceed the device maximums given in this document.
•
Be careful when pulling N2 wire. This is especially true if you are
using 24 or 26 AWG wire, which breaks easily when pulled. Plenum
grade wire is the best choice for pulling through tight areas.
