Service Tech Life #3: NAC troubleshooting

In this episode, I describe the method of using voltage to determine the status of a NAC circuit.

Thanks for your channel sir , keep the great content up!

You should Meter the NAC while it's Disconnected from the panel.

Why?

[@liam0748]

I have to try your method, seem to cut time drastically

[@Scoobydoobie208]

How would this apply to SLC devices if it isn't too much trouble could you elaborate on that please

[@IsaacCoverstone]

@Joseph Williams with SLC, it isn't really necessary to troubleshoot this way, since the panel knows the status of all the devices. The reason you troubleshoot NACs this way is because they aren't smart devices.

[@XandoFootball]

If you wanted to demo the nac circuit completely, would you need to deprogram at the panel first then tear it out

[@IsaacCoverstone]

You would need to find the end of line resistor and place it across the terminals for that circuit, then the wire can be removed if needed.

[@XandoFootball]

Couldnt they just kill the circuit at the panel and then let us remove the circuit and devices?@@IsaacCoverstone
