What This Code Means
The system has detected an unintended connection to ground or an incorrect configuration of the earth fault detection jumpers on multiple power supply modules.
Common Causes
- 1Earth fault detection jumper is active on PSM 2 or PSM 3 when using more than one module
- 2Protective earthing (PE) connection is not connected to the correct terminal
- 3Functional earth (FE) is not connected to the PE rail
- 4The fire alarm system is connected to an IT power supply system
Resolution Steps
Deactivate the earth fault detection using the jumper on the side of PSM 2 and PSM 3 if more than one power supply module is used. Ensure the network side protective earthing (PE) connection is connected to the correct terminal and the functional earth (FE) is connected to the PE rail. Verify that the system is not connected to an IT power supply system.
