What's included in our pa & voice alarm systems service
Design to BS 5839-8 & EN 54-16
Voice alarm designed to BS 5839-8 using EN 54-16 control equipment and EN 54-24 loudspeakers, with zoning matched to your evacuation strategy.
Speech Intelligibility (STI)
Speaker layouts designed and commissioned to achieve the required Speech Transmission Index so evacuation messages are clearly understood throughout the building.
Fire Alarm Interface
The system is interfaced to the fire alarm so activation triggers pre-recorded evacuation and alert messages automatically, zone by zone.
Phased & Zoned Evacuation
Different messages to different zones — evacuate, alert, or stand-by — supporting phased evacuation in larger and high-rise buildings.
Combined Public Address
The same speaker network delivers live announcements, paging and background music day to day, with fire messages always taking priority.
Monitoring & Certification
Fully fault-monitored amplifiers, speaker lines and microphones, handed over with a commissioning certificate, zone plan and O&M manual.
