Overview

This Course has been devised specifically to allow people who are interested in learningabout Fire Alarm Systems to understand what a Fire Alarm System is and also to be ableto the design at the very least a Basic Fire Alarm System Design with utmost ease.Inorder to make this happen, I have tried to explain all the basic and important componentsand topics related to Fire Alarm Systems in a simple without going into too many details thatmay confuse people. For the same purpose I have divided the course into two main sectionsi.e. understanding a fire alarm system and designing a fire alarm system, and I have broken down both these main sections into sub sections to allow for easy understanding.So, before we begin the course let us first talk about the importance and the need for having aFire Alarm System. Now, as we all know that through out the ages Fire Risks have caused a lotof damage to both property and lives due to the inability to detect fires in their early stages. If a fire can be detected in the early stages of its development, then it can, not only be contained and extinguished early but it can also allow for the timely evacuation of the occupants of the premisesby alerting them to the presence of fire alarm before the fire spreads and reaches dangerous levels.This is where fire alarm systems come in. These systems allow for the early detection and the early warning of occupants to the presence of fires by using devices known as detectors and notification devices which notify the occupants by either audible signals, visual signals or by a combination of both.The fire alarm systems can also be interconnected with other systems and buildings such as fire stationsto allow the alarm signal to reach them and for the necessary action to be taken in time.
