COMMISSIONING 

The  fire  alarm  installer  shall  ensure  that  all  documentation,  logbook,  handbook 
(operators  and  installers  manuals),  as-installed  drawings,  and  check  list  are 
available at the time of commissioning. 

 

The fire alarm system installer shall rectify any faults in the fire detection and alarm 
installation, as appropriate, where the results of the commissioning tests are outside 
the manufacturer's limits. 

6.1 

As-Installed Diagrams and Installer's Statement 

An as-installed diagram of the wiring layout of the complete installation, including the 
positions of the Smoke/Heat Alarms and any ancillary devices, should be provided 
before a final inspection is made. 

6.2 

Commissioning Tests 

6.2.1 

System Configuration 

Step 1 

Ensure  that  the  control  panel  and  smoke/heat  alarm  locations  are 
appropriate for the type of site and usage. 

 

Step 2 

Check that all smoke / heat alarms used in the system are: 

 

Listed in this manual 

 

Compatible  with  the  installed  zone  circuit,  particularly  that  the 
permitted  number  of  smoke/heat  alarms  for  the  zone  is  not 
exceeded; and 

 

Installed in an environment for which they are suitable 

 

Check  for  any  sign  of  contamination  due  to  installation  or  other 
building works.  

 

Step 3 

Check that all ancillary control functions for the system are: 

 

listed in this manual 

 

wired as per design specification. 

 
 

Step 4 

Check  that  the  AC  mains  power  supply  for  the  system  has  been 
provided in accordance with AS3000. 

 
Step 5 

Visually check all field wiring terminations (refer to the block wiring  

 

 

diagram shown in figure 6 of this manual). 

 
Step 6 

Ensure the End of Line Device is in correct location (last device or alarm 
in the zone), visually confirm wiring is correct (refer to figure 6). 

 
Step 7 

Check that the battery is fitted.  It should be of a suitable type and  

 

 

capacity.  

 
Step 8 

Check  that  as-installed  drawings  have  been  correctly marked  up  and 
that they are consistent with the installation. 

 
Step 9 

Record  the  results  of  the  commissioning  test  on  the  commissioning 
sheet in this Handbook.
