The GSA-MAB drops Class A wiring capability into any Genesis notification appliance with a UIO mount slot. No additional conduit runs, no extra boxes. Plug it in, and the NAC circuit gains the fault tolerance that Class A wiring provides: if a wire break occurs anywhere on the loop, the circuit continues to operate from the return path.
Built for the fire alarm installer
Class A wiring is required or preferred on many commercial fire alarm jobs, especially in high-rise, healthcare, and institutional occupancies where circuit survivability is non-negotiable. The GSA-MAB handles the conversion at the device level, keeping the install clean and code-compliant without running additional conductors back to the panel. All circuits are power limited.
Key benefits
- Plug-in Class A conversion: adds Class A/B wiring capability to Genesis notification appliances via UIO mount
- No extra wire runs: converts at the device, reducing labor and conduit requirements
- Power limited: all circuits power limited per UL listing
- Universal fit: compatible with Genesis horns, strobes, horn-strobes, and speakers that accept UIO mount accessories
- Clean installation: module seats inside the appliance housing with no visible external hardware
System requirements
Requires a Kidde Genesis notification appliance with a UIO mount slot. The NAC circuit must be wired in a Class A (Style Z) configuration from the FACP or NAC power supply. Consult the FACP installation manual for Class A wiring requirements specific to your panel.
