Q: Can CCTV Record Sound?

Yes, CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) cameras can record sound, but not all CCTV cameras are equipped with audio recording capabilities. Whether or not a CCTV camera can record sound depends on its make and model, as well as the type of audio recording features it has. Most modern CCTV cameras come with built-in microphones that allow them to capture sound, while others require separate audio recording devices to be installed in order to record audio. Some cameras also have the ability to record audio along with video footage, while others may only record audio. It is important to note that in many jurisdictions, there are legal restrictions on the use of audio recording in surveillance, and these restrictions may vary depending on the country, state, or region in which the CCTV camera is being used. It is therefore important to check local laws and regulations before installing a CCTV camera with audio recording capabilities. In summary, while some CCTV cameras can record sound, it ultimately depends on the specific make and model of the camera, as well as any legal restrictions that may apply in the area where the camera is being used.

Q: How often should my Fire Alarm be serviced?

Every 6 Months To comply with BS 5839-1, fire detection and alarm systems should undergo a service by a competent provider every six months. This helps ensure the system functions correctly and meets the standard. Regular service allows identification of faults or problems. Addressing any issues guarantees the fire alarm system is operational during emergencies.

Q: Do I need a Fire Alarm Zone Plan?

Yes, under the updated BS 5839-1:2025 standards, a zone plan is now required. Clause 6.6 has been introduced to specify what cannot be considered acceptable variations to the standard. One important change is that buildings with more than one zone on any storey—particularly those where people sleep—must have a zone plan or suitable diagram. This requirement supports safer evacuation and clearer identification of alarm zones in the event of an emergency.

Q: Do I legally need to have a fire alarm

Whether you need a fire alarm system depends on compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (FSO). This legislation mandates that businesses must conduct a fire risk assessment to determine the necessary fire safety measures, including the need for a fire alarm system. It's crucial to understand your legal obligations under the FSO to ensure the safety of your premises and compliance with regulations.
