In the most extensive Code revision since 1993, the 2010 NFPA 72® leads the way to a new era in signaling systems. Order the groundbreaking 2010 NFPA 72: National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code today to raise protection to new heights!

The scope and organization of the 2010 NFPA 72 - National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code has expanded beyond the core focus on fire alarm systems to also include requirements for mass notification systems used for weather emergencies; terrorist events; biological, chemical, and nuclear emergencies; and other threats. This wider coverage is reflected in a new Code title: National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code. 314 pp.

In addition to updated rules for in-building fire emergency voice/alarm communications systems, this edition also includes a new chapter that contains first-time provisions for:

Risk analysis requirements for the design of mass notification systems (MNS)
In-building MNS
Wide-area MNS for locations such as college campuses and military bases
Distributed recipient MNS to communicate with targeted individuals or groups
In-building radio enhancement systems
Area of refuge for two-way emergency communications systems

Other major revisions and additions that increase protection affect:

Circuits and pathways -- A new chapter combines existing and new requirements and consolidates basic wiring rules and circuit performance into one location.
Voice intelligibility -- Revised installation and testing provisions plus an extensive new Annex with detailed guidance for testing
Signaling for the deaf and hard of hearing -- Improved safety in sleeping areas includes new rules that mandate low-frequency signaling for those with mild to severe hearing loss, and tactile as well as visible signaling for those with profound hearing loss.
Smoke detector placement -- Updated spacing and placement requirements for level beamed ceilings and new spacing requirements for sloped beamed ceilings
