General Information
Relations
Overview
EN 54-4:1997/AC:1999 is the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) standard for power supply equipment used in fire detection and fire alarm systems. It specifies requirements and expectations for the design, performance, fault signalling and reliability of power sources that feed fire detection and alarm installations. This standard was adopted nationally (e.g., SIST EN 54-4:1997/AC:2000 in Slovenia) and forms part of the wider EN 54 series for fire detection and alarm systems.
Key Topics
The standard focuses on technical and operational aspects of power supply equipment, including:
- Scope and applicability for power units used in fire alarm systems
- Design and construction expectations to ensure safe, durable power supply components
- Mains supply and backup power arrangements to maintain system operation during mains failure
- Battery/charging requirements and provisions for energy storage and charging (performance and reliability considerations)
- Fault monitoring and signalling to alert users and maintenance personnel of power faults or degraded supply
- Performance, testing and documentation requirements to verify reliability and to support installation, inspection and maintenance
- Installation and wiring considerations to ensure compatibility and safe integration with fire detection equipment
(Note: the above items reflect the typical scope for power-supply standards within the EN 54 family; see the official EN 54-4 document for exact clauses and technical specifications.)
Applications
EN 54-4 is intended for use where dependable power is critical to fire detection and alarm performance. Typical users and applications include:
- Manufacturers of power supply units, battery chargers and backup systems for fire alarm panels
- System designers and integrators specifying power architectures for building fire safety systems
- Installers and commissioning engineers ensuring correct installation and initial testing of alarm power supplies
- Maintenance and facilities teams conducting inspections, testing and remedial actions
- Certification and regulatory bodies assessing compliance with European fire safety requirements
- Buildings and facilities requiring certified fire detection systems: commercial complexes, hospitals, industrial plants, residential blocks and public infrastructure
Related Standards
- EN 54 series (other parts covering detectors, control panels, alarm devices)
- National adoptions (e.g., SIST EN 54-4) and relevant electrical installation standards
By following EN 54-4:1997/AC:1999, stakeholders can ensure reliable power design and operation for fire detection and alarm systems, improving overall fire safety and compliance with European standardization.
