That is correct unless it forms part of a commercial building then it is not permitted, as 1 the system must be integral 2. all sounders must be of the same type and tone............Any other points you wish to clarify, and lastly call anyone on here a tool on this forum and i can not see you lasting very long

Thought that was something they were recommending on the latest courses...
 
L1 is Everything meaning small (1mx1m) cupboards. L2 is an L3 with additional rooms/spaces to be covered. So u talk about a Big difference. Such a massive difference.

Please read the standards...a room of 1m x 1m is also not required under L1 unless is constitutes a fire risk, such as db cupboard.
The more you comment the more miss leading you are becoming to the op, L2 is not L3 with additional rooms added...if so what are theses so called rooms....?
As a newbee, Electrical Trainee with little experience, which is showing on every addition post you add, who has attended a fia 1 day course...I really think you need to think again abaut telling a BSI design Engineer his 25 year trade

Im sooo missing leading... I dont need to read it again. I know enough to know what i have said it perfectly fine. So u can keep trying to talk to me like a child.
Next u'll be telling about how to test a fire alarm system.
So please again try n correct when i say 1 detector/device per zone is can be classed as a periodic Inspection.

Listen up mate. Don't come on here spouting out garbage and trying to shoot down a member that has a first class knowledge of FA systems. Tazz is a respected member on this forum and his opinion will always out way yours.
 
U see that word OPINION...
That was yours.
Valued member yes i can see that.
But to say im shooting down someone opinion or word. Only person i see doing that is him.
And im sprout garbage... Ok
 
Why are you arguing with a guy that's worked in the fire alarm industry for 25 years and forgotten more than you'll probably ever learn about Fire Alarms?? What's really annoying, is the fact you actually think you're right and a working BSI design Engineer has it all wrong!!!
 
Lmfao i read it pretty clear when i passed the course. With regards u tool - not Illegal for a FLAT to have main detectors.

Another one that does know the difference between a statutory and non statutory document is it illegal or just non compliant

I agree you are very very miss leading and to be honest I've never seen a keyboard that allows you to type with your rear end as that seems to be where you posts are coming from. Looking at your profile you are an inexperienced expert with just enough knowledge to be dangerous. I think you have a lot to learn before you pick a fight / argument with someone with a lot more experience and knowledge on the subject than you appear to have

If the words expert advice replaced opinion would that help you get a better understanding. I think you need to realise that you are the only one that has any regard for what you are saying

Your head must be in the darkside because that is all you are spouting from what I've read
 
The lack of knowledge is never evident to the person who does not possess it

One very big problem with the guy is he can't recognise and has no respect for the highly skilled and very superior trade know how of the very person who he should learn from

The member he is attempting to insult, it is akin to a midget trying to out jump someone who is in comparison a giant in that field
 
My profile is merely down to the fact i came on here recently for other help with understand my college course. As every electrician knows there is a hell of alot to learn besides fire alarms. (Especially when thats all u deal with) so saying im an inexperience expert just down to a profile....wow.

Just to confirm my (small) knowledge of the L categories:-
L1 throughout - including spaces bigger than 1sq m, voids more the 800mm in depth.
L2 - an L3 with additional Higher Risk areas. (Not so different)
L3 designed to protect escape routes
L4 & L5 not really worth thinking about on this case.

Now i fully understand Tazz that you are clearly Superior in your knowledge I'm i cant deny that there are clearly somethings in Fire i have little knowledge of.
So if you can clarify those Ls... By all means
 
I've asked and received FA advice from Tazz on a couple of occasions. Both times in unusual buildings and uses, both times signed off by Fire Inspector and one inspected by an OFSTED buildings inspector! I know who I'll be asking for advice again when I need some.

Why would he bother?? Whatever he say's or tells you, you're going to try and find some fault with it...

In the future stick to asking questions, and rather than trying to find fault with the sound replies, listen to them, ....you might actually learn something!!
