STANDARD FOR THE INSTALLATION,

MAINTENANCE AND USE OF CENTRAL

STATION PROTECTIVE SIGNALING SYS-

TEMS FOR WATCHMAN, FIRE ALARM

AND SUPERVISORY SERVICE.

CHAPTER 1. GENERAL.

ARTICLE 100. DEFINITIONS.

Throughout this pamphlet the following meanings are intended;

Alarm Signal. A signal indicating an emergency requiring im-

mediate action, as an alarm for fire from a rnanual box, a waterflow

alarm, an alarm from an automatic fire alarm system, or other emer-

gency signal.

a mage Signal. A signal indicating the need of action in

connection with the supervision of watchmen, sprinkler and othe

a systems or equipment, or with the maintenance features

of other protective systems.

Trouble Signal. A signal indicating trouble of any nature, such

as a circuit break or ground, occurring in the devices or wiring

associated with a protective signaling system.

Protective Systems, Equipment, or Apparatus. Automatic sprink-

lers, standpipes, carbon dioxide systems, automatic covers, and other

devices used for extinguishing fires and for controlling temperatures

or other conditions dangerous to life or property.

Protective Signaling Systems. Electrically operated circuits, in-

struments, and devices, together with the necessary electrical energy,

designed to transmit alarms and supervisory and trouble signals,

necessary for the protection of life and property.

Central Station System. A system, or group of systems, the

operations of which are signaled to, recorded in, maintained and

supervised from an approved central station, in which there are

competent and experienced observers and operators in attendance at

all times whose duty it shall be, upon receipt of a signal, to take

such action as shall be required under the rules established for their

guidance. Such systems shall be independently owned, controlled,

and operated by a person, firm, or corporation whose principal busi-

ness is the furnishing and maintaining of supervised protective

signaling service and who have no interest in the protected properties.

The service required following the manual oper-

ation of a fire alarm box, the transmission of ar alarm indicating the

operation of protective equipment or systems, such as an alarm from

waterflow in a sprinkler system, the discharge of carbon dioxide, the

detection of smoke, the detection of excessive heat, or the transmission

of an alarm from other protective systems.

4 CENTRAL STATION PROTECTIVE SIGNALING SYSTEMS

—_——

Supervisory Service. The service required to assure performance

of watch patrols and the operative condition of automatic sprinkler

systems and of other systems for the protection of life and property.

Maintenance. Repair service, includi:.¢ periodically recurrent

inspections and tests, required to keep the pro‘ective signaling system

and its component parts in an operative condition at all s, to-

ether with replacement of the system or of its coniponents, when

or any reason they become undependable or inoperetive.

Distant Service. The alarm and supervisory service furnished

where, because of distance, customary and acceptable runner and

response service cannot be furnished from the central station or from

a’, approved runner station.

ARTICLE 110. FUNDAMENTALS.

1110. Application.

1111. Protective signaling systems have been in use for many

years, and their value, in connection with the fire hazard, is r zed

as applying both to the protection of life and to the preven of

property damage. 2

The general experience with all protective signaling systems is

that their dependability is directly pr tional to the amount and

effective character of maintenance, ting, and supervis

that these functions are best performed when the owner or occupant

of the protected premises contracts for service with an outside agency

known to be qualified in the handling of central station signaling

service.

1112. This Standard is intended to apply primarily to super-

visory and alarm service furnished by operators constantly in attend-

ance at a central station, manually or automatically controlled, with

the required maintenance, inspection and testing force and runner

service readily available. Central station companies customarily follow

this Standard for maintenance, testing, aud inspection with respect

to other classes of contract service which they furnish, but may,

subject to approval of the authority having jurisdiction and because

of distance from the central station or otherwise, modify the character

of the runner service response provided.

For standards applying to systems which do not ae 4 as

central station systems, see Standards for Proprietary, Auxiliar

gg a Station and Local Protective Signaling Systems (NBF

1120. Approval.

1121. Before acceptance may be obtained for any ecuipment

operating through a central station, there shall be filed with the

authority having jurisdiction a general description of the apparatus

to be installed together with such detailed information and drawings

as are necessary to the complete understanding of the operation of

the system. Daily reports to subscribers and to the authority having

jurisdiction may be required.

1122. If the authority having jurisdiction requires it, there shall

also be furnished:

a. Diagrams showing the manmer in which the various equip-

[fol. 1356]

GENERAL 5

ments will be connected to the central station and signals delivered

to the city fire department.

b. A satisfactory guarantee of the service to be furnished, and

of the efficiency and maintenance of the system.

1130. Central Station Facilities.

1131. The central station building and its fire protection shall be

satisfactory to the authority having jurisdiction.

1132. The central station shall be equipped with the necessary

instruments of an approved pattern for automatically receiving and

recording all signals. The time of receipt of signals shall also be

recorded manually, or preferably by an automatic device.

1133. The central station shall have reliable means of trans-

mitting alarms to the fire department over wires electrically super-

vised and under the control of the central station. Where permissible

and deemed necessary it is recommended that there be established

a direct electrically supervised circuit to fire alarm headquarters,

with suitable code-sending device and recorder, and, in addition,

a direct telephone circuit from the central station to fire alarm

headquarters.

1134. The devices and circuits shall be designed and installed

so as to meet successfully the most severe conditions liable to be

met in practice, and no change or alteration shall be made in same

without approval.

1135. Circuits between the prot=cted premises and the centra!

station, and within the protected premises, except as hereinafter

excluded, where essential to the actuation or operation of signaling

devices initiating a signal indicative of fire, shall be so arranged that

the occurrence of a single break or single ground fault will not

prevent the transmission of an alarm. This requirement shall not

apply to circuits wholly within the central station, nor to circuits

extending from a thermostat to a transmitter, nor to power supply

leads wholly within the buildings protected and carried in. metallic

conduit not subject to moisture, provided, however, that in the case

of oa exception failure of the power supply shall give a trouble

signal.

1136. The occurrence of a single break or a single ground fault

on any circuit shall not of itself cause a false signal which may be

interpreted as an alarm of fire. Where such single fault prevents

the normal functioning of any circuit its occurrence shall be indicated

automatically at the central station by a trouble signal compelling

attention and readily distinguishable from signals other than those

indicative of an abnormal condition of supervised parts of a fire

extinguishing system.

1137. Circuit adjusting means for emergency operation may

either be automatic or be provided through manual operation upon

receipt of a trouble signal.

1138. The circuits and devices shall be arranged to receive and

record a signal readily identifiable as to location of origin, and

provisions shall he made for equally identifiable transmission to the

fire department.

[fol. 13571

6 CENTRAL STATION PROTECTIVE SIGNALING SYSTEMS

1140. Operations and Test.

1141. The central station shall have sufficient personnel (a

mimimum of “two persons) constantly on duty to assure immediate

attention to all signals received and, where required, prompt runner

service to the protected premises. All operators and runners shall

be of mature age.

The authority having. jurisdiction may modify the standards re-

specting personnel where alarms are automatically transmitted to

the fire department. Operation and supervision shall be the primary

functions of the operators and runners and no other interest or

activity shall take precedence over the protective service.

1142, Manual tests of all circuits extending from the central sta-

tion and of central station devices shall be made at intervals of

approximately twelve hours.

1143. Facilities shall be provided at the central station on all

circuits extending from the central station and on all local current

sources at the central station for making the following tests:

to normal before making other tests.

b. Voltage across terminals of each circuit at the inside terminals

of protective devices.

c. Voltage between ground and each side of each circuit.

1144. Complete and satisfactory test shall be made monthly of

all actuating and transmitting devices, except gate valve supervisory

switches, non-coded manual fire alarm boxes, and combination night

watch and fire alarm boxes, which must at least be tested at six-

month intervals. Test results shall be reported to the authority

having jurisdiction.

1150. Signals and Reports.

1151. Arrangements shall be made to furnish reports of signals

received to the authority having jurisdiction, in a form acceptable

to it.

1152. Disposition of Signals.

a. Upon receipt of trouble signals or other signals pertaining

solely to matters of equipment maintenance of the signaling systems,

the operating company shall immediately investigate and, if possible,

assure that the trouble is remedied at once.

Written notice shall be given the authority having jurisdiction

and to the property owner, in all cases where service of the signaling

system is interruped and is not immediately corrected.

b. Upon receipt of signals indicating a flow of water in the

automatic sprinkler system the central station shall notify the fire

department and such other parties as the authority having jurisdiction

may require.

It shall also dispatch a runner to the protected premises.

It shall also notify the property owner by telephone or by the

quickest method available.

796

(fol. 1358]

GENERAL .

It is recommended that, in addition, written notification be given

the property owner.

Where notification is required of parties with whom private lines

of communication have not been provided, the quickest available

means of communication shall be used.

c. If at any time a combination signal is received which from

its nature is indicative of water flow at the premises protected, such

a signal shall be handled by the central station as a fire alarm, pro.

vided, however, that the authority having jurisdiction may waive

notification to the fire department of sprinkler water flow alarms

during working hours of the protected premises, unless accompanied

by other signals indicating a probable fire. Definite instructions for

the handling of alarms shall be posted for the guidance of operators,

d. All alarms initiated by manual or automatic fire alarin devices

shall be treated as fire alarms and transmitted to the fire department,

and to such other places as may be designated by the authority

having jurisdiction.

e. Upon failure of the central station to receive a watchman’s

regular signal within the grace period established the central station

shall at once communicate with the protected premises by telephone,

or by calling back over the system circuit. If communication cannot

be established promptly a runner shall be dispatched to investigate

the delinquency. Failure of the watchman to follow a prescribed

route in transmitting his signals shall be handled as a delinquency

and reported in writing to the authority having jurisdiction. All

delinquencies shall be reported in writing to the subscriber.

f. Sprinkler system and other supervisory signals shali be com-

municated immediately to a designated person at the protected

premises, and shall be investigated by a runner unless supervised

conditions are restored to normal promptly. The authority having

jurisdiction and the subscriber shall be notified of the signal and

of the times of occurence and restoration of service. Notification

shall be given the fire department and others designated by the

authority having jurisdiction when sprinkler systems are wholly

or partially out of service.

g. The operating company shall have a man available within

two-hour travel who is competent to inspect, maintain, and repair

the system.

1153. Distant Service. Where, because of distance, acceptable

runner service cannot be furnished from the central station or from

an approved runner station, the authority liaving jurisdiction shall

designate the method of handling alarm and other signals and the

runner service to be provided.

It is recommended that, where practicable, suitable provision

be made, subject to the acceptance of the authority having jurisdiction,

to notify the local fire department or brigade of alarms, either by

automatic or manual transmission from the protected premises or

from the central station, such provision to include confirmation of

the alarm from the central station to the local fire department by

telephone or by coded signal.

of a supplementary circuit for actuation of equipment controlling

blowers, fans, shutters, etc., at the time of a smoke alarm signal.

3430. Location of Detectors.

3431. Smoke detectors shall be so located and adjusted to oper-

ate reliably in case of smoke at any part of the area protected. The

location of detectors should be based upon an engineering survey

of the application of this form of protection to the area under con-

sideration. These features include air velocity; number of detectors

to provide adequate coverage of cross-sectional areas of the space

with respect to travel, diffusion, or stratification of smoke; location

of detectors with respect to exhaust intake, or circulating blowers;

air conditioning facilities; temperature variations, and the like. Such

conditions vary with different installations and should be dealt with

on the basis of experience in the service.

the space to be protected by a smoke detector, particular attention

shall be given to the intake, exhaust, and circulation of smoke under

any condition of operation of the equipment to insure prompt de-

tection.

3434. Photo-electric light beams shall be so located or enclosed

or otherwise arranged that movement of objects within the space

protected will cause no signal.

3435. Light-sensitive equipment shall be so located or shielded

that light from any source other than that intended to be applied

to the ecuipment will have no effect upon the detector. The opening

of any enclosure during normal servicing shail cause no smoke alarm

signal. A smoke detector shall be so installed as to minimize the

possibility of operation due to accumulation of dust, moisture, deteri-

oration of equipment, or any other condition of system operation not

associated with fire or smoke.

3436. The conditions of occupancy of each space protected by

a smoke detector shall be arranged to avoid operation of the detector

due to the use of fumigants, or any other type of fog- or mist-

producing materials, sweeping and cleaning resulting in dust circula-

tion, or the like.

3437. The smoke detection combination shall be able to with-

stand 110 per cent of the rated voltage continuously without injury

during the normal supervisory condition and shall operate success-

fully during the normal signaling condition at the increased voltage

and also at 80 per cent of normal voltage.

3438. All smoke detecting equipment shall be secured reliably

in place. The security of separate photo-electric light source and

receiver units sh2!l insure against change of adjustment due to vibra-

tion, change in alignment of supporting surfaces, or the like.

3439. Provision shall be made to afford adequate protection

of the smoke detection equipment from mechanical injury.

3440. Maintenance Servicing.

3441. All equipment requiring servicing shall be readily access-

ible and shall provide practical means for cleaning parts which

accumulate dust, replacement of illuminating lamps, etc.

3452. The requirement of paragraph 3451 does not apply to the

circuits between the smoke alarm signal transmitter and the sinoke

detector control unit if both of these units are located in a common

enclosure, or in adjacent enclosures not more than three feet apart

and having the circuits between the enclosures run in conduit.

3453. The motor of a blower provided as a part of a smoke

detector shall be electrically supervised to indicate stalling or

burnout. «

3454. The requirements of Article 240 for electrical supervision

of circuits applies to all wiring employed to interconnect separate

units of a smoke detecting system and its power supply circuit wiring

at the installation. In addition, the smoke detecting system shal]

provide electrical supervision of all filaments of photo-electric cel

illuminating lamps and the filaments and heaters of all electronic

— if their failure prevents normal operation for a smoke alarm

signal.

3455. The failure of electrically-supervised circuits and parts

shall be indicated by a trouble signal which is distinctive from a

smoke alarm signal.

CHAPTER 1. GENERAL.

ARTICLE 100. DEFINITIONS.

Throughout this pamphlet the following meanings are intended;

Alarm Signal. A signal indicating an emergency requiring

immediate action, as an alarm for fire from a manual box, a water.

flow alarm, an alarm from an automatic fire alarm system, or other

emergency signal.

Signal. A signal indicating the need of action in

connection with the supervisiom of watchmen, sprinkler and other

extinguishing systems or equipment, or with the maintenance features

of other protective systems.

Trouble Signal. A signal indicating trouble of any nature such

as a circuit break or ground, occurring in the devices or wiring

associated with a protective signaling system.

Protective Systems, Equipment or Apparatus. Automatic sprin-

klers, standpipes, carbon dioxide systems, automatic covers, and other

devices used for extinguishing fires and for controlling temperatures

or other conditions dangerous to life or property.

Protective Signaling Systems. Electrically operated circuits, in-

struments, and devices, together with the necessary electrical energy,

designed to transmit alarms and supervisory and trouble sigatl

necessary for the protection of life and property.

Alarm Service. The service required a the manual oper-

ation of a fire alarm box, the transmission of an alarm indicating the

operation of protective equipment or systems, such as an alarm from

waterflow in a sprinkler system, the discharge of carbon dioxide, the

detection of smoke, the detection of excessive heat, or the transmis-

sion of an alarm from other protective systems.

Supervisory Service. The service required to assure performance

of watch patrols and the operative condition of automatic sprinkler

systems and of other systems for the protection of life and property.

Maintenance. Repair service, including periodically recurrent

inspections and tests, required to keep the protective signaling system

and its component parts in an operative condition at all times, to-

‘ GENERAL

System. A system with supervision by competent

experienced personnel in a central supervising station at the

ropes protected. The system is to include equipment and other

required to permit the operators to tain, test, and

operate the system, and upon receipt of a si to take such action

as shall be required under the rules established for their guidance

by the authority having jurisdiction.

(See Paragraph 4011 for a statement of the distinction between

Class A and B Proprietary Systems).

Auxiliary Alarm System. A system maintained and supervised

by a responsible person or corporation and consisting of transmitting

devices and associated equipment which when operated manually or

automatically causes an alarm to be transmitted over a municipal

fire alarm system, to a fire station or to fire alarm headquarters for

retransmission, either manually or automatically, to fire stations.

Auxiliarizing a municipal fire alarm system in connection with

a private fire alarm system has for its object the transmission of

alarms directly to a fire station or to fire alarm headquarters upon

operation of an actuating device such as an automatic fire detector,

waterflow alarm switch, or manual fire alarm station. Combining

the auxiliary feature with any private alarm system introduces

features of maintenance, inspection, and supervision, usually involving

divided ate L and requires special consideration by the authority

having jurisdiction. Fire alarm systems which transmit an alarm to

a fire station or to fire alarm headquarters, independently of and in

addition to an auxiliary system, provide a duplication of service,

increasing the probability of an alarm being received.

There are two types of auxiliary systems, the series or local

current type, and the shunt type.

Remote Station System. A system of electrically supervised

devices employing a direct circuit connection between the alarm

signal actuating devices at the protected premises and signal-indicat-

ing equipment in a remote station, such as fire or police headquarters

or other place acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction.

Local Alarm System. An electrically operated system producing

signals at one or more places at the premises served.

Miscellaneous System. Any other protective signaling system.
