– Discuss the legislation and standards that apply to such systems and the impact they are having today.
– Summarise the key points of and changes to BS 5839-6 2019 : The code of practice for the design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of domestic fire alarm systems.
– Explore if ‘Stay Put’ is still a safe policy to deploy for evacuating a building during a fire.
– Outline a new approach to fire alarm systems for purpose-built flats and apartments with multiple advantages that can help make strategies such as stay put/defend-in-place safer.
Upon completion, attendees will receive a CPD certificate worth three hours of CPD points. Refreshments and a buffet lunch will be provided.

“Demand is expected to be high so we would advise anyone who is interested to register their interest quickly.”
All of C-TEC’s CPD (Continuing Professional Development) seminars have been assessed by independent experts as being suitable for an intermediate audience, meaning both novices and experienced participants are likely to benefit.
