Fire alarm help please....asap

[alarm man]

AM, just to digress. it's standard practice to use red FP200, but is it obligatory? reason i ask is that i'm in the middle of an install and i'm about 30m short of cable, but i do have some white FP200, rather than having to buy 100m red,

not sure on that to be honest,never give it a thought if its fire rated its fire rated,id use it..

if its a new zone use fp,if its adding to a zone with t&e using fp with add no real benefit

Thanks,that was my thinking as well,its only a 1 zone panel so will just find end of circuit and go from there.

Not a problem mate : ) i would always use fp what ever.

 

[Paul Chick]

Wiring the additional points is the easy part have you thought about re-commisioning and certifying these additions.

Another quick couple questions ( ive don nout on theses things ) can the smoke heads go on a slight angle because the stairwell ceiling is about 45o and is it also ok to join fp in a galv through box? Oh and one other thing, once ive finished is it as easy as turning the power back on and everything should be ready to go? Cheers guy
