Fire Alarm System- Part-1


FIRE ALARM SYSTEM

A Quick Introduction

Is Fire Alarm System a mandatory requirement?

A fire alarm system is intended to enable a fire to be detected at a sufficiently early stage so that people who are at risk can be made safe either by escaping from the fire or by the fire being extinguished (also to prevent extensive property damage). Neither of these measures can be used until people are made aware of the fire.

The effectiveness of the fire detection and alarm system depends on the stage of the fire at which it is operated. For all the occupants to escape without too much difficulty, an early alarm should operate before the escape routes become smoke-logged to such an extent as will cause occupants to have difficulty finding their way out of the building.
