Abstract: A fire activation module for a fire extinguishing system includes an actuation device that has an instantaneous actuation current draw during a suppression event. First and second power leads are connected to the actuation device and have a current capacity less than the instantaneous actuation current draw. At least one capacitor is connected to the actuation device and the power leads. The capacitor is configured to store electricity from the power leads and discharge the electricity to the actuation device during the suppression event.

Abstract: A wiring harness for a fire extinguishing system including a connector that has a pair of power leads and a pair of command leads. At least one zone identification element is in communication with the connector and is configured to provide a zone location assignment to the connector.

Abstract: A fire extinguishing system includes a first data bus having respectively first power and command leads. The system has multiple zones, each of which may include one or more detectors, and/or one or more suppressors and activation devices. The first data bus is directly connected and common to the detectors, suppressors and activation devices. A controller is connected to the multiple zones via the first data bus. A fire activation module includes the actuation device. First and second power leads are connected to the actuation device. A capacitor is connected to the actuation device and the power leads. The capacitor is configured to store electricity from the power leads and discharge the electricity to the actuation device during a suppression event. A wiring harness provides a zone identification element in communication with a connector and configured to provide a zone location assignment to the connector.

Abstract: A power supply circuit apparatus, and method for controlling the same, includes multiple power supplies connected to a load via power channels and a controller. The controller detects a short circuit in the power supply based on a measured load input current.
