Abstract
A building control or danger warning system includes a two-core circular bus for voltage supply and for communication with bus user circuits connected to the cores of the circular bus. The bus user circuits are looped-into the circular bus via FET (field effect transistor) polarity-reversal protection bridges, thereby simplifying connection of the bus user circuits to the circular bus. A bus user circuit is located between d.c. connection terminals and connected in parallel with two protection bridges. The bus user circuit measures the voltage conditions and polarity of the a.c. voltage input terminals of the bridges. According to the results of the measurement, the bus is relayed to the subsequent bus user circuit.
