I've always wondered how fire alarm systems would operate during a power outage. Got this idea when one of my schools lost power

Yep. Fire alarm systems are required to remain functional in a power outage for a minimum of 24 hours. (At least in the US)

2:07 “It’s currently installed in the pull station.... location on my demo system” Idk why but I thought this was hilarious

Great video as always that intro was really cool 👍

We had a tornado warning 4 days ago while I was in a different house for the weekend. The Power didn’t cut though but it did start flickering

Cool video man! Do you have the LED on your 2098-9806 key switch directly wired to a NAC on your ms5ud? Have you had it wired like that for a while on your old house system test series? Thank you for your help!

lol this vid was taken on my 20th bday! Great video!

Love Code 3 alarm sound

The system in my area that is common (other than firelite/notifier and system sensor) is a firelite addressable system with wheelock notification appliances

Scary lightning 🌩

And I really like how those panels connected

The beeping makes me think about that weird beeping at the McDonald's kitchen

nice bro. I really liked this one

That was one hell of a sweet intro

My setup is set up though when there's no power. This my box actually it's the lights and brings a bell my room to tell me there's no power. It sort of works or doesn't work but it worked great the last time I used it. May 2021 because there was a tornado warning issued. I'm a heavy sleeper that Bell is only going to wake me up. And the weather where you go off crazy it's a good thing to have.

Hey exitsing250 you are the friend of ser safety.

Ohh really cool video!! I enjoy your videos!! Stay safe and have fun!! ...

cool test

Stay safe out there my friend!

How does it work at No power?! I throughly the fire alarm panel was working

I hear the AS more than the NS. I wish they were seperated. then you could hear it better.

At my grandparents house 🏠.The exit sign was on.not the emergency lights. The power lines got strucked by lightning ⚡ and the exit sign combo stays on when the power goes out

4:45 the trouble light with the lights off looks scary

love it

Well that's cool!

What would you do if you had a air raid siren

I like how it sounds like a Siemens ummt

That one alarm on the far side sounds like a UMMT horn strobe

12 LX FIRE 🔥

I wish I could do all this stuff

I had a power outage while I was watching this.

How do they still work if there’s no power in just wondering

How much current does the system draw when it’s in alarm? I imagine the batteries would drain quite a bit while the fire alarms are going off compared to a normal state.

@ExitSign250

2 жыл бұрын

Good question. I’m not sure of that information on the top of my head, and it varies depending on what devices are installed. Fire alarm code requires alarms to sound and flash for a minimum of 15 minutes if the system is operating on the backup batteries. So in theory it should at least last around that time.

They sound pretty cool like the ones at my elementary school I believe

Hey. What happened to your old power outage videos?

I know all about fire alarms that I made want myself by hand

I have one of the wheelocks but one of them is old

Fire alarm can still go off because when I was at school the power went out then a few mins later the fire alarm go off then they say disregard the fire alarm and every since the power when out the fire alarm kept turn on and they have to keep say disregard the fire alarm and it only happened in the morning when we are waiting outside

Surprised the alarms didn't freak out after the power outage... I did a whoopsie when I was doing work on a locker box and pulled the power cord for a power cycle... Didn't realize it was also powering the firelite system. First thing I notice is beeping which I thought was weird for the locker and the alarms go off. Plugged it back in but no one said anything... I'm guessing I'm not the first person to fuck that up.

@ExitSign250

Most of the time the only thing that will happen is the control panel will beep in trouble indicating an AC fault. Older systems can have issues where the alarms will sound in a power failure which isn’t by design.

How did the power go off?

@ExitSign250

Both the AS and NS are two wire alarms. They are able to be audibly silenced with Wheelock’s sync protocol; which the Fire-Lite MS-9200UDLS is capable of and was set to in this video.

@@ExitSign250 Sorry for bothering you, but I have one more question. I recently purchased a Wheelock 31T, which, if I recall correctly, is an AC horn. I have a DC panel, so I'm not exactly sure how I would make that work with my DC panel. Do you have any idea on how I could do that?

@ExitSign250

5 ай бұрын

@CrappyPastry99 Hey again! No worries, you aren’t bothering me at all. Unfortunately with an AC horn it cannot be used with panels with DC outputs. However, if your panel has an alarm relay, you can connect your horn to it with an AC power supply if the relay is rated for it. While this method will allow the horn to sound when the panel is in alarm, you cannot silence or change the coding as the alarm relay is triggered when the panel is in alarm and resets when the panel resets. I hope this makes a bit of sense and feel free to ask anymore questions!

In North America most smoke detectors on fire alarm systems do not have any built in sounders. However you can get some with a sounder base or internal sounder. These are mostly common in hotel, dorm, or other sleeping rooms.
