Upgrading a fire alarm system in an occupied building is a different game than a new install. The wiring is old, the drawings are missing, the building can't shut down, and everybody has a different idea of what needs to be tested.
This session gets everybody on the same page, in plain language. We'll walk through the full life of an upgrade, from the first site visit to the final verification report, using CAN/ULC-S524 (installation) and CAN/ULC-S537 (verification). We'll go through real examples: what has to be tested after different types of changes, how to judge existing wiring, and mistakes that cause failed inspections and callbacks.
Whether you install the system, design the upgrade, manage the building, or approve the permit,
you'll leave knowing what to ask, what to check, and what "done" really looks like.
