The F-5ELEC drops a factory-fresh electronics assembly into your existing FX-5 enclosure - no rewiring, no new conduit runs, no permit headaches. When the original board fails, this replacement gets the panel back online without pulling a single conductor off the terminal blocks.

Built for the fire alarm installer

This is the complete electronics assembly for the Kidde FX-5 conventional fire alarm control panel: 5 initiating device circuits, 2 NAC circuits, built-in DACT, and full Class A or Class B wiring capability. It carries the same UL 864 9th Edition and ULC-S527 listings as the original panel, keeping the installation compliant without recertification.

Key features

  • Drop-in field replacement: slides into the existing FX-5 enclosure and reconnects to existing wiring

FAQs

Does the F-5ELEC fit my existing FX-5 enclosure?
Yes. Direct drop-in replacement for the FX-5 electronics. Connects to existing wiring and mounts in the existing enclosure without modification.
Does this include standby batteries?
No. Standby batteries must be ordered separately. The F-5ELEC includes the electronics assembly only.
Is this UL listed?
Yes. UL 864 9th Edition and ULC-S527 listed for compliant installations in the US and Canada.
What's the difference between F-5ELEC and a new FX-5?
The F-5ELEC is the electronics only - board, front panel, and controls. A full FX-5 includes the enclosure. If your enclosure and wiring are intact, the F-5ELEC saves time and material cost.
Does this support Class A wiring?
Yes. All initiating device circuits and NAC circuits support both Class A and Class B wiring configurations.
