To limit the probability of delays in the transfer to emergency power in the event of a failure of the normal power source to fire alarm systems in a fire situation, which could lead to the fire alarm system not operating properly, which could lead to:

  • persons not being promptly notified of the fire, which could lead to delays in the evacuation or movement of persons to a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons, and
  • emergency responders not being promptly notified of the fire, which could lead to delays or ineffectiveness in carrying out fire emergency response operations, which could lead to:
    • delays in the evacuation or movement of persons to a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons, and
    • the spread of fire, which could lead to harm to persons.
