Standards and guidelines

When fire alarm systems are being installed and operated, the applicable standards and
guidelines as well as the generally accepted technological standards must be complied with.
Any deviation from those rules is only admissible if the same degree of safety can be ensured
with different means. Installations within the European Community are primarily subject to all
EU regulations defining the current standards for security systems.
In Germany, systems are considered to be in compliance with the general technical rules or the
standards of the EU for security systems if they meet the technical guidelines of the VDE
(Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker, Association of German Electrical Engineers). They may
also be considered to be in compliance with the standards of the EU for security systems if they
meet the technical guidelines of another comparable institution within the European Community
which have been accepted in accordance with directive on low-voltage systems The same must
be applied for all applications of additional, product relating guidelines, e.g. EMI-Guideline and
the Construction Products Regulation.
