(e) Building Control Circuits. Article 725 where building control circuits
(e.g., elevator capture, fan shutdown) are associated with the fire protective signaling system.
760-3. Classifications. Fire protective signaling circuits are the portion
of the wiring system between the load side of the overcurrent device or
the power-limited supply and all connected equipment, and shall be
classified as nonpower-limited or power-limited. All fire protective signaling circuits shall comply with Part A, and, in addition, nonpowerlimited circuits shall comply with Part B, and power-limited circuits
shall comply with Part C. Circuits that do not comply with all of
the requirements of Part C, including the markings required by Section
760-22, are classified as nonpower-limited circuits and shall comply with
all of the requirements of Part B.
760-4. Identification. Fire protective signaling circuits shall be identified at terminal and junction locations, in a manner that will prevent
unintentional servicing. interference with the signaling circuit during testing and
760-5. Circuits Extending Beyond One Building. Fire protective signaling circuits that extend aerially beyond one building shall either meet the
requirements of Article 800 and be classified as communications circuits,
or shall meet the requirements of Article 225.
760-6. Grounding. Fire protective signaling circuits and equipment shall
be grounded in accordance with Article 250.
Exception: DC power-limited fire protective signaling circuits having a
maximum current of 0.030 amperes.
760-7. Access to Electrical Equipment Behind Panels Designed to Allow
Access. Access to equipment shall not be denied by an accumulation of
wires and cables that prevents removal of panels, including suspended
ceiling panels.
