BS 5839-1:2025: What's Changed?
The new BS 5839-1:2025 standard updates how fire alarms are designed, installed, and maintained. It focuses on safety and clear records for every property.
Design Certification Requirement
Fire alarm systems need a clear plan created by a qualified engineer. Every system must have a certificate showing it is designed correctly before it is installed.
Red Mains Cables
All alarm circuits use red, fire-resistant cables. This makes the wiring easy to see and keeps the system safe during checks.
Competence Requirements
Engineers need to prove they have the right skills. They must keep learning about fire alarm rules and follow the latest safety steps.
Maintenance Records
Engineers keep detailed notes of every test, check, and repair. Records are saved digitally, so it is easy to show that the system works correctly.
