FOREWORD
A word about the significance of our UL Listings: These UL Listings allow the Telguard models to meet certain
requirements of insurance companies, fire marshals, building inspectors and other regulatory authorities in burglary and
fire alarm service as follows:
1. In Burglary Alarm Service: When used in conjunction with a Listed central station burglary alarm control unit with
integral or Listed DACT that is connected to a Listed Grade A bell and bell housing, the combined
control/communicator and Telguard TG-300 is suitable for Grade A central station service. This is one grade higher
than a Listed control/communicator can obtain on its own without some type of external line supervision, such as is
involved in UL AA service.
A UL Grade A Listing is available in installations where the host Listed burglary alarm control/communicator
transmits through the TG-300 solely on cellular ("Cellular only": No Telco; Cellular primary). Also, where the
control/communicator is switched to transmit over cellular when it can not reach the central station over telco
("Cellular backup for Telco": Telco primary; Cellular secondary).
The specific UL Listings for the TG-300 with respect to burglary alarm service are Residential Burglary, UL1023.
Central Station Burglar Alarm Systems, UL1610; Police Station Connected Alarm Systems, UL365; and Digital
Alarm Communicators, UL1635.
2. In Fire Alarm Service: When used in conjunction with a Listed central station fire alarm control unit with a twotelco line integral or Listed DACT, the combined control/communicator and Telguard TG-200 meet the requirements
for commercial fire alarm usage under UL 864 and NFPA. This enables the TG-200 to be the second "phone line" in
commercial fire installations.
In UL/NFPA Listed fire alarm installations, the Listed two-line fire alarm control communicator must always use
telco as the primary transmission path, switching to cellular only when and if it can not reach the central station over
telco. Also, the TG-200 may be employed in residential fire, UL985 applications.
Appendices A3.1 through A3.3.1 (burglary alarm service) and A3.4 through A3.5.1 (fire alarm service) show the
installation configurations and the connections that must be made to meet various UL Listing requirements.
