20 of 88 11/16/2016 3:59 PM Energy Storage Systems conflicts with the 2017 NEC article 706. If the intent is to relate ESS in NFAP-72 to those addressed in the NEC, the definition needs to be the same. Or, by leaving this definition out of NFPA-72 will result in the use of the definition in the NEC per NFPA-72 1.3.4. Then there would be no need for this definition in NFPA-72

A.3.3.92 Electrochemical energy storage systems include uninterruptable power supplies(ups).

A.7.2.1 (11) Section 26.6.2.4 allows for three communications pathway options when a supervising station fire alarm system is provided: 1) Performance-based technologies; 2) Digital Alarm Communicator Systems; 3) Radio Systems which includes one-way private and two-way RF systems. Chapter 26 includes several requirements specific to each of these communications pathway alternatives. In order to verify the provided communication path(s), and any shared equipment, comply with code requirements, the following are examples of information which should be submitted as the minimum documentation for a supervising station fire alarm system: Performance-based technologies The type of performance-based transmitter(s) to be used such as IP communicators, cellular radios, etc. Whether communications with the supervising station will be via a single pathway or a multiple pathway An indication of the use, where applicable, of shared equipment such as routers, modems, LANs within the protected premises Battery calculations for the shared equipment which should meet the requirements of 26.6.3.13 Digital Alarm Communicator System The primary communications pathway which should be a telephone line The secondary communications pathway which should comply with Section 26.6.4.1.4 Radio System The type of radio system which will be used (private one-way, or two-way RF) The secondary power provided for the radio transmitter Where the transmitter equipment is located separately from the main fire alarm control unit, an indication of its protection in accordance with Section 10.4.4 should also be provided within the minimum documentation.

Negative with Comment Gauvin, Daniel J. The committee's statement regarding a fire hazard is only correct if the record documentation is stored in paper form. Where record documentation is stored on electronic media there is no added fire hazard and no justification for this change. The committee should consider a revision to allow record documents to be stored on electronic media but not to allow paper documentation storage in the fire alarm control unit. Mundy, Jr., James M. We are very concerned about combustible material being stored in a Fire Alarm Control Unit. Power supplies are able to generate large volume of heat. Storing electronic records is most acceptably and should also include thumb drives.

Sanedrin, Allan Vaughn, Allyn J. Warner, Todd W. Affirmative with Comment Gauvin, Daniel J. Although I agree that it makes sense to have reasonable minimum and maximum height limits for control unit displays, controls, and visible indicators, I agree with the negative comment from Mr. Berezowski; i.e. "The technical committee has changed the mounting height limits from those proposed and substantiated in PI-114 without technical justification." Negative with Comment Berezowski, Andrew G. The technical committee has changed the mounting height limits from those proposed and substantiated in PI-114 without technical justification. DiTaranto, James I disagree with this. I believe it should be left up to the AHJ to determine the functionality.if anything this material should be annex only material giving a recommendation. By putting this restriction as "shall"you are limiting a installation or manufacturer from designing control panels that fit within these parameters. There may be circumstances where there may not physically be the space to mount control panels dialers with silence buttons etc within these limits.

Section PI PAGE DISPOSITION New A.10.4.4 Text Create FR A.10.4.4 Switches and visible indicators referenced in 10.4.4 are those intended for use by the system owner and first responders. It is not the intent of the committee to require all control unit diagnostic indicators or configuration switches used by the installation/service personnel required to be installed within these limits. Control Units that do not have such operator interface are not bound by this requirement, however the installer should consider best practice for ease in serviceability. Statement The Technical Committee adds this section to provide additional detail regarding the committee intent for locating Control Units and the applicability to Diagnostic LED s and/or configuration switches.
