C-TEC 2 Zone Panel with intermittent "General Fault" Alarm

[Brian Cork]

Hi All,

 

Any suggestions appreciated!

 

I have a problem with a C-Tec, 2 Zone panel which keeps triggering the "General Fault" and "Power Supply Fault" beep.

 

There is only one Zone with 5 detectors.

 

The mains trip switch has been replaced, and the mains supply feeds a second panel, which does not have any problem.

 

The panel and backup batteries have been replaced.

 

There are no Zone Fault Alarm, and the detector are triggering when tested.

 

Any ideas what might be causing the problem ?

You could try replacing the PSU but in my experience this rarely fixes it its normally the panel buggered down to the batteries not being replaced frequently enough

Had the occasional one where a power cycle makes it go away.

Have you checked everything over with a meter?

You replaced the whole panel then?
