Foreword
This document (EN 50518-3:2013) has been prepared by CLC/TC 79 "Alarm systems".
The following dates are fixed:
(dop) 2014-10-07
• latest date by which this document has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement
(dow) 2016-10-07
• latest date by which the national standards conflicting with
this document have to be withdrawn
This document supersedes EN 50518-3:2011.
EN 50518-3:2013 includes the following significant technical changes with respect to EN 50518-3:2011.
– There was no mandatory connection for certification between the three parts of the standard with the
result that it could be possible to certify only against one or two of the three parts of the standard, which is
clearly not the purpose of the WG. This is solved by adding a sentence “This part of EN 50518 is to be
read in conjunction with Part 1 and Part 2, and cannot be used separately.” to the foreword.
– The scope is limited to intruder and hold-up alarm systems.
– All normative references are updated.
EN 50518 consists of the following under the generic title “Monitoring and alarm receiving centre”:
 Part 1: Location and construction requirements;
 Part 2: Technical requirements;
 Part 3: Procedures and requirements for operation.
This part of EN 50518 is to be read in conjunction with Part 1 and Part 2, and cannot be used separately.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CENELEC [and/or CEN] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Introduction
This European Standard applies to all Monitoring and Alarm Receiving Centres (MARC’s) that monitor and/or
receive and/or process signals that require an emergency response.
In all existing EN 50131 series accomplished under CLC/TC 79 "Alarm systems", the abbreviation ARC is
used. To avoid confusion and to achieve consistency in terminology the abbreviation ARC will be used
throughout this European Standard, where MARC is equivalent for ARC.
It is noted that this European Standard cannot supersede any legislative requirements deemed necessary by
a National Government to control the security sector on a national basis. This European Standard cannot
interfere with items that are regulated by (inter)national regulations concerning external services (e.g. water,
wastewater, fuel supplies, gas, oil and mains power supplies).
