CHAPTER 7. Fire Protection Systems
Questions and Answers 100% Solved
Only multiple‐station smoke detectors are required by the codes to be tied into the
building's power source, but single‐station smoke detectors are not.
(True/False) - answer False. Both multiple‐ and single‐station smoke detectors must be
tied into the building's power source.

The decision to use an automatic sprinkler system, fire detection system, or smoke
detection system is mostly based
(True/False) - answer False. Although budget may be a consideration, the choice of
system will most often be dictated by the codes based on the occupancy type and/or the
size of the building.

The codes do not allow the connection of fire and smoke alarm systems to the building's
security system.
(True/False) - answer False. New technology (i.e., building automation systems) allows

mechanical system or the security system, although some jurisdictions may restrict the
extent of these connections.

When a fire occurs, a detection system only detects the presence of smoke.

detect smoke and other gases, heat and changes in temperature, or multiple symptoms
of fire.

(True/False) - answer True. An alarm system can be activated manually using a pull
station, or automatically upon the operation of an automatic sprinkler system, fire
detection system, or smoke detection system.

Manual fire alarms must typically be placed within 5 feet (1524 mm) from the latch side
of an exit door.
(True/False) - answerTrue.

Fire extinguishers must be in a glass case mounted on the wall.
(True/False) - answerFalse. Fire extinguishers can be surface mounted using a bracket,
or recessed within a wall using a cabinet. The cabinet can have either a vision panel or
a solid door that is clearly marked.

Most alarms must be audible and ________________. - answerVisual (visible)
