Power-up and testing
6.6 EST3 Installation and Service Manual
Initial and reacceptance test procedures
Introduction
Once the system has been wired, programmed, and the circuit
faults corrected, all installed components should be tested as a
system, to insure proper operation.
The initial system check is designed to verify that all
components of the system are installed and operating as
designed. Verifying that the system was designed and installed
according to specifications requires all aspects of the system to
be exercised and the results verified. Where test results differ
from those expected, corrective action must be taken.
Before commencing testing, notify all areas where the alarm
sounds and off-premises locations that receive alarm and trouble
transmissions that testing is in progress.
Records of all testing and maintenance shall be kept on the
protected premises for a period of at least five (5) years.
Required Tools:
• Slotted screwdriver, insulated
• Digital multimeter
• 12inch (30.5 cm) jumper lead with alligator clips
• Panel door key
A complete check of installed field wiring and devices should be
made at regular intervals, in accordance with NFPA 72 and ULC
524 requirements. These requirements are covered in the chapter
on preventive maintenance.
