1 OPTIONAL INFORMATION Name of School: Date of Inspection: Vocational Program/Course/Room: Signature of Inspector: ALARM SYSTEMS AND EVACUATION PLANS Guidelines: This checklist covers regulations issued by the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs under the Uniform Fire Code (N.J.A.C. 5:70) and the Uniform Construction Code Enhancements for public school facilities (N.J.A.C. 5: A). It also includes regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) under the general industry standards 29 CFR , , , and The Uniform Fire Code has adopted the model code of the Building Officials and Code Administrators International, Inc. known as the BOCA National Fire Prevention Code/1996" by reference as well as the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard for the National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA Standard 72, last updated in winter 2011) as it applies to inspection, testing and maintenance. This checklist applies to fire detection and alarm systems installed to alert students and school district employees to fire and other emergency hazards. It also applies to establishment of fire and emergency action plans, which are cross-referenced in school safety and health plans required by N.J.A.C. 6A:19-6.5The local fire official should be consulted for clarification regarding interpretation of these regulations. The OSHA code for emergency action and fire prevention plans under must be implemented only when required by another OSHA standard. Even though it may not be required in your situation, development of an emergency action and fire prevention plan is highly recommended. Fire alarm and detection systems installed in full compliance with existing building codes may not have to be upgraded to meet existing code regulations. Detailed annual testing requirements of automatic and manual fire alarm systems and fire detection systems have not be included in this checklist. For this information, please consult 29 CFR , , BOCA F and NFPA 72. Implementation of some or all of the regulations may not be the responsibility of an individual classroom teacher. The questions that are most likely not the responsibility of the individual teacher are marked with an asterisk (*). 1.* Is your school equipped with automatic fire alarm and fire detection systems?

Required Emergency Communications Systems: An emergency communications system shall be installed in occupancies where required by the authority having jurisdiction or by other applicable governing laws, codes, or standards. Please note: Centralized emergency management systems may control fire alarms at buildings throughout the campus. This requires a pre-signal feature meeting the following conditions: The initial fire alarm signals sound only in department offices, control rooms, fire brigade stations, or other constantly attended central locations and/or there is a connection to a remote location, the transmission of the fire alarm signal to the supervising station activates upon the initial alarm signal. Subsequent system operation is by either of the following means: (a) Human action that activates the general fire alarm (b) A feature that allows the control equipment to delay the general alarm by more than one minute after the start of the alarm processing. Schools with centralized emergency management systems please note the other elements that may need to be evaluated: 1. Voice messages for emergency communications systems should be capable of reproducing recorded, synthesized, or live (e.g., microphone, telephone handset, and radio) messages with voice intelligibility 2. Microphones for live voice announcements shall have posted instructions for the microphone user. 3. Loudspeakers used for emergency communications system functions also providing ancillary functions shall have the fire command center or the emergency command center (as applicable) constantly attended 05/13 83
6 by trained personnel, with selective paging permitted by the authority having jurisdiction and/or have loudspeakers and associated audio equipment installed or located with safeguards to resist tampering or misadjustment of those components essential for intended emergency notification. Note: The monitoring integrity requirements must continue to be met while the system is used for non-emergency purposes. 4. Circuits intended to transmit off-premises shall have a pathway survivability of Level 0, Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3. Mass Notification Layers used for emergency communications shall be categorized into layers consider the type of audience and reach as follows: (1) Layer 1- means of notification of occupants by systems/equipment controlled by authorized users (in-building ECS), (2) Layer 2- means of notification of occupants on the exterior of a building controlled by authorized users (wide-area MNS) 5. Building controls for fire emergency voice/alarm communication systems shall be at an approved secure location accessible only by trained authorized personnel. If multiple in-building fire emergency voice/alarm communications control locations are present, only one can be in control at a given time. The location having control of the system shall be identified by a visible indication at that location and other manual must provide visible indication of on/off status for their associated evacuation signaling zone. 6. Every emergency management system used for fire alarms and other broad-scale communications at a school or district campus must have required documentation on file (stored in an approved cabinet) and available for review. This includes: Owner s manual with a complete set of operations and maintenance manuals, manufacturer s published instructions, and product data sheets covering all system equipment; record and as-built drawings; a written sequence of operation; one current copy of the record of completion form, updated to reflect all system additions or modifications, a record copy of the systemspecific software, copy of the software stored on-site in nonvolatile, nonerasable, nonrewritable memory; emergency response plan, with operational management procedures defined for management and activation of the system; risk analysis, when provided; 7. Upon activation of an emergency signal, the system shall override any local volume setting to deliver at a preset volume setting that has been established through testing and acceptance of sound level and speech intelligibility as required by this Code. 8. Visible Notification, where audible notification is provided, mass notification systems shall also provide visible notification information to serve the hearing impaired and for high-noise areas. The visible notification shall be accomplished using strobes and the spacing of colored strobes shall be in accordance with public mode spacing requirements using the effective intensity as the basis for spacing. 9. Two-Way Radio Communications Enhancement Systems must be in contact with critical areas such as the fire command center(s), the fire pump room(s), exit stairs, exit passageways, elevator lobbies, standpipe cabinets, sprinkler sectional valve locations, and other areas deemed critical by the authority having jurisdiction, shall be provided with 99 percent floor area radio coverage. A minimum inbound signal strength of 95 dbm, or other signal strength as required by the authority having jurisdiction, shall be provided throughout the coverage area and a minimum outbound signal strength of 95 dbm at the donor site, or other signal strength as required by the authority having jurisdiction, shall be provided from the coverage area. 05/13 84
