• generators The technician has to have personal protection device: -
  
• junction box’s cables gland - enter generators’ s cables gland
  
• During the second six month inspection in addition to the described
  
• above: ÿ generators must be disconnected to the line and an
  
• impedance measurement must be run on each generator: - value of
  
• the measurement must not be infinite or less than 0,6 Ohm. ÿ For
  
• those generators produced from February 2009 when it is found a

• WEEKLY INSPECTION CHECKLIST FOR SPRINKLER SYSTEMS
  
• Gauges – the gauges on dry, pre-action, and deluge systems should be inspected weekly. In this step, you’re looking for a normal read on air and
  
• water pressure.
  
• Control valves – you should check these weekly to ensure that they are free from leaks, locked, properly sealed, and in the open position. Proper
  
• signage should identify what part of your sprinkler they control.
  
• MONTHLY INSPECTION CHECKLIST FOR SPRINKLER SYSTEMS
  
• Gauges (on wet pipe systems) – you should check that the water pressure is maintained and that there is no sign of physical damage.
  
• Alarm valves – these should be externally inspected each month.
  
• QUARTERLY INSPECTION CHECKLIST FOR SPRINKLER SYSTEMS
  
• Alarm devices – every three months, check that these are free from physical damage.
  
• Hydraulic nameplate – check that this is secured to the sprinkler riser and legible.
  
• ANNUAL INSPECTION CHECKLIST FOR SPRINKLER SYSTEMS
  
• The NFPA requires that you have a licensed technician inspect your fire sprinkler system annually to keep your building safe and up to code. The
  
• technician will inspect and maintain all components of your fire sprinkler system, including:
  
• Gauges
  
• Control valves
  
• Alarm devices
  
• Hangers/bracing
  
• Pipes and fittings
  
• Sprinkler heads

• Service and Maintenance - Intruder Alarm
  
• Please note – If the proposed system requires police response then two service visits per year are mandatory. If you fail to have the system serviced or
  
• maintained then the police will remove all automatic response. Regular service has been proved to reduce false alarms and wasted police time.
  
• Please note – If the proposed system is a requirement of your insurance company they will also require that your system is serviced or maintained in line with
  
• the current standards and current police requirements. Failure to have the system serviced or maintained or the loss of police response will mean that the
  
• insurance company may refuse to pay out after a break-in. Regular service has proved to be the only way to ensure that the system is working correctly.
  
• The requirement is that the system MUST receive a service or maintenance visit by an alarm company engineer every 6 months.
  
• Note – one of these visits MAY be carried out remotely by the alarm company via the telephone line and the modem.
