Publication where the measure is specified

UGANDA GAZETTE Vol. CVIII No. 20 of 21 April 2015 

Regulation where the measure is specified

US ISO 7240-25:2010, Fire detection and alarm systems — Part 25: Components using radio transmission paths 

Country/Region applying the measure

Uganda 

Description of the measure

This Uganda Standard specifies requirements, for components used in fire detection and alarm systems, installed in and around buildings, which use radio-frequency (r.f.) transmission paths. It specifies requirements for the assessment of conformance of the components to the requirements of this standard. Where components work together and this requires knowledge of the system design, this standard also specifies requirements for the system. When the fire detection and alarm system uses wired and r.f. transmission paths, the relevant parts of US ISO 7240 apply together with this part of US ISO 7240. Requirements relevant to wire transmission paths are superseded or modified by those included in this standard. This standard does not restrict the intended use of radio spectrum, e.g. frequency, power output of devices;the allowed maximum number of the components using r.f. transmission paths within the fire detection and alarm system or one wire transmission path and/or r.f. transmission path; andthe allowed maximum number of the components affected by loss of one wire transmission path and/or r.f. transmission path.
