fire risk.
Fire Risk Assessment
The ‘Grade’ and ‘Category’ of system that should be installed depends on the fire risk.
It is therefore recommended that a Fire Risk Assessment is undertaken. The Risk
Assessment would be based on a combination of probabilities:
- fire occurring
- injury or death to occupant
- system operating correctly with a fire
- early detection and warning to occupants in the event of a fire.
The greater the risks, the more comprehensive and reliable systems are needed.

wellings) systems define the level of fire protection required for
households, depending on the fire risk and regulations. Ei Electronics recommends
that an LD1 system be installed for optimum protection.
