Daisy Chaining Multiple DEBCs

Issue

I have multiple DEBC's triggered from the same external source that that need to be tied together. How do I correctly land wiring between the DEBC units?  

ETC has tested up to 10 DEBC's Daisy Chained together.

Solution

  1. For a maintained dry contact (no voltage) land wires on the V Out and Input terminals. Be certain to maintain polarity between the wires.
  2. For a maintained wet contact (voltage) land wires on the Input and Common terminals. All subsequent DEBC's shall be daisy chained via the Input and Common terminals. Be certain to maintain polarity between the wires.

For more details, please see the DEBC Installation Guide.
