Elevating Safely: Interfacing Fire Alarm Systems With Elevators
As I teach fire alarm seminars around the country, one of the greatest problem areas brought up is interfacing fire alarm systems with elevators. Elevator and fire inspectors do not enforce the same codes, and therein lies the problem. NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code, has expanded requirements for elevators in the last couple of editions, and there will be even more in the 2019 edition. Let’s look at NFPA 72’s 2016 requirements. I will cover expected 2019 changes in an article next year.
