4.8 Firetrace Detection/Actuation Tubing
The location of the Firetrace detection tubing is critical to the response time in the event of a fire. The Firetrace detection tubing should be installed
throughout the enclosure and routed in close proximity to all potential fire sources. The Firetrace detection tubing should not be placed horizontally
adjacent to a potential fire source.
