Alarm systems - Intrusion and hold-up systems -- Part 1: System requirements

This European Standard specifies the requirements for Intrusion and Hold-up Alarm Systems installed in buildings using specific or non-specific wired interconnections or wire-free interconnections. These requirements also apply to the components of an I&HAS installed in a building which are normally mounted on the external structure of a building e.g. ancillary control equipment or warning devices. The standard does not include requirements for exterior I&HAS. This standard specifies performance requirements for installed I&HAS but does not include requirements for design, planning, installation, operation or maintenance. These requirements also apply to I&HAS sharing means of detection, triggering, interconnection, control, communication and power supplies with other applications. The operation of an I&HAS shall not be adversely influenced by other applications. Requirements are specified for I&HAS components where the relevant environment is classified. This classification describes the environment in which an I&HAS component may be expected to operate as designed. When the requirements of the four environmental classes are inadequate, due to the extreme conditions experienced in certain geographic locations, special national conditions are given in Annex A. General environmental requirements for I&HAS components are described in Clause 7. The requirements of this European Standard also apply to IAS and HAS when these systems are installed independently. When an I&HAS does not include functions relating to the detection of intruders, the requirements relating to intrusion detection do not apply. When an I&HAS does not include functions relating to hold-up, the requirements relating to hold-up do not apply.

Alarmanlagen - Einbruch- und Überfallmeldeanlagen -- Teil 1: Systemanforderungen

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an Einbruch- und Überfallmeldeanlagen fest, die in Gebäuden installiert sind und die exklusive oder nicht-exklusive leitungsgebundene oder drahtlose Verbindungen verwenden. Diese Anforderungen gelten auch für die Anlageteile von in Gebäude installierten EMA/ÜMA, die üblicherweise im Außenbereich am Gebäude montiert sind z. B. zusätzliche Bedieneinrichtung oder Signalgeber. Die Norm enthält keine Anforderungen an EMA/ÜMA für den Außenbereich. Diese Norm legt Leistungsanforderungen für installierte EMA/ÜMA fest, enthält aber keine Anforderungen an Planung, Projektierung, Installation, Betrieb oder Instandhaltung. Diese Anforderungen gelten auch für EMA/ÜMA, die Mittel der Erkennung, Auslösung, Verbindung, Steue-rung, Kommunikation und Energieversorgungen mit anderen Anwendungen teilen. Der Funktion von EMA/ÜMA darf von anderen Anwendungen nicht negativ beeinflusst werden. Anforderungen an EMA/ÜMA Anlageteile sind entsprechend den Umweltklassen festgelegt. Diese Klassifizierung beschreibt die Umweltbedingungen, bei denen ein bestimmungsgemäßer Funktion der EMA/ÜMA Anlageteile erwartet werden kann. Wenn die Anforderungen der vier Umweltklassen aufgrund extremer Bedingungen, die in bestimmten geographischen Gebieten erfahrungsgemäß auftreten, nicht ausreichend sind, gelten die in Anhang A aufgeführten besonderen Nationalen Bedingungen. Allgemeine Anforderungen an Umweltbedingungen für EMA/ÜMA Anlageteile werden in Abschnitt 7 beschrieben. Die Anforderungen dieser Europäischen Norm gelten auch für EMA und ÜMA, die unabhängig voneinander installiert sind. Wenn EMA/ÜMA keine Funktionen für das Erkennen von Eindringlingen enthalten, gelten die Anforderungen an die Einbrucherkennung nicht. Wenn EMA/ÜMA keine Funktionen für Überfallmeldungen enthalten, gelten die Anforderungen an Überfall nicht. ANMERKUNG   Falls nicht anders angegeben, gilt die Abkürzung EMA/ÜMA auch für EMA sowie für ÜMA.

Systèmes d'alarme - Systèmes d'alarme contre l’intrusion et les hold-up -- Partie 1: Exigences système

La présente Norme Européenne spécifie les exigences des systèmes d’alarme contre l’intrusion et les hold-up installés dans les immeubles utilisant des liaisons filaires spécifiques ou non spécifiques, ou des liaisons non filaires. Ces exigences s'appliquent également aux composants d’un I&HAS installé dans un immeuble, normalement fixé sur une structure externe de l'immeuble, ex: des matériels de commande auxiliaire ou des dispositifs d'avertissement. La norme ne contient pas d'exigences pour les I&HAS situés à l'extérieur. Cette norme spécifie les caractéristiques des I&HAS installés, mais elle ne comprend pas d'exigences pour la conception, la planification, l'installation, le fonctionnement ou la maintenance. Ces exigences s'appliquent aux I&HAS partageant leurs moyens de détection, de déclenchement, de liaison, de commande, de communication et d'alimentation avec d'autres applications. Le fonctionnement d’un I&HAS ne doit pas être influencé défavorablement par d'autres applications. Les exigences sont spécifiées pour les composants de I&HAS si l'environnement correspondant est classifié. Cette classification décrit l'environnement dans lequel est supposé fonctionner un I&HAS tel qu'il est conçu. Si les exigences relatives aux quatre classes d'environnement sont inadaptées en raison de conditions extrêmes vérifiées pour certains emplacements géographiques, des conditions nationales particulières sont données en Annexe A. Les exigences générales relatives à l'environnement concernant les composants des I&HAS sont décrites dans la’Article 7. Les exigences de la présente Norme Européenne s’appliquent également aux IAS et HAS lorsque ces systèmes sont installés de façon indépendante. Lorsqu’un I&HAS ne comprend pas de fonctions relatives à la détection d’intrus, les exigences relatives à la détection d’intrusion ne s’appliquent pas. Lorsqu’un I&HAS ne comprend pas de fonctions relatives au hold-up, les exigences relatives au hold-up ne s’appliquent pas. NOTE   Sauf indication contraire, l’abréviation I&HAS est destinée aussi à désigner les IAS et HAS.

Alarmni sistemi - Sistemi za javljanje vloma in ropa - 1. del: Sistemske zahteve

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za sisteme za javljanje vloma in ropa, nameščene v zgradbah, ki uporabljajo specifične ali nespecifične ožičene ali brezžične medsebojne povezave. Te zahteve se uporabljajo tudi za komponente sistema I&HAS, nameščenega v zgradbi, ki so običajno nameščene na zunanji strukturi zgradbe, npr. pomožna nadzorna oprema ali opozorilne naprave. Ta standard ne vključuje zahtev za zunanje sisteme I&HAS. Ta standard določa zahteve glede zmogljivosti nameščenih sistemov I&HAS, vendar ne vključuje zahtev za zasnovo, načrtovanje, namestitev, upravljanje ali vzdrževanje. Te zahteve veljajo tudi za sisteme I&HAS, ki si z drugimi načini uporabe delijo sredstva za zaznavanje, sprožanje, medsebojno povezovanje, nadzor, komunikacijo in napajanje. Drugi načini uporabe ne smejo negativno vplivati na delovanje sistema I&HAS. Zahteve so določene za komponente I&HAS, pri katerih je klasificirano okolje uporabe. Taka klasifikacija opisuje okolje, v katerem komponente I&HAS delujejo v skladu s svojo zasnovo. Če zahteve štirih okoljskih razredov ne zadostujejo zaradi ekstremnih pogojev na nekaterih geografskih območjih, se lahko uporabijo posebni nacionalni pogoji, navedeni v dodatku A. Splošne okoljske zahteve za komponente I&HAS so opisane v točki 7. Zahteve tega evropskega standarda veljajo za sisteme IAS in HAS tudi v primeru, kadar so sistemi nameščeni ločeno. Če sistem I&HAS nima funkcij, povezanih z zaznavanjem vsiljivcev, se zahteve glede zaznavanja vdorov ne uporabljajo. Če sistem I&HAS nima funkcij, povezanih z zaznavanjem ropov, se zahteve glede zaznavanja ropov ne uporabljajo.

Introduction
This European Standard applies to Intrusion and Hold-up Alarm Systems. The standard is also intended to
apply to Intruder Alarm Systems which include only intrusion detectors and to Hold-up Alarm Systems which
include only hold-up devices.
This European Standard is a specification for Intrusion and Hold-up Alarm Systems (I&HAS) installed in
buildings, it includes four security grades and four environmental classes.
The purpose of an I&HAS is to enhance the security of the supervised premises. To maximise its
effectiveness an I&HAS should be integrated with appropriate physical security devices and procedures. This
is particularly important to higher grade I&HAS.
This standard is intended to assist insurers, intruder alarm companies, customers and the police in achieving
a complete and accurate specification of the supervision required in particular premises, but it does not
specify the type of technology, the extent or degree of detection, nor does it necessarily cover all of the
requirements for a particular installation.
All references to the requirements for I&HAS refer to basic minimum requirements and the designers of such
installed I&HAS should take into account the nature of the premises, the value of the contents, the degree of
risk of intrusion, the threat to personnel and any other factors which may influence the choice of grade and
content of an I&HAS.
Recommendations for design, planning, operation, installation and maintenance are given in Application
Guidelines CLC/TS 50131-7.
This standard is not intended to be used for testing individual I&HAS components. Requirements for testing
individual I&HAS components are given in the relevant component standards.
I&HAS and components thereof are graded to provide the level of security required. The security grades take
into account the risk level which depends on the type of premises, the value of the contents, and the typical
intruder or robber expected.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the requirements for Intrusion and Hold-up Alarm Systems installed in
buildings using specific or non-specific wired interconnections or wire-free interconnections. These
requirements also apply to the components of an I&HAS installed in a building which are normally mounted
on the external structure of a building e.g. ancillary control equipment or warning devices. The standard does
not include requirements for exterior I&HAS.
This standard specifies performance requirements for installed I&HAS but does not include requirements for
design, planning, installation, operation or maintenance.
These requirements also apply to I&HAS sharing means of detection, triggering, interconnection, control,
communication and power supplies with other applications. The operation of an I&HAS shall not be adversely
influenced by other applications.
Requirements are specified for I&HAS components where the relevant environment is classified. This
classification describes the environment in which an I&HAS component may be expected to operate as
designed. When the requirements of the four environmental classes are inadequate, due to the extreme
conditions experienced in certain geographic locations, special national conditions are given in Annex A.
General environmental requirements for I&HAS components are described in Clause 7.
The requirements of this European Standard also apply to IAS and HAS when these systems are installed
independently.
When an I&HAS does not include functions relating to the detection of intruders, the requirements relating to
intrusion detection do not apply.
When an I&HAS does not include functions relating to hold-up, the requirements relating to hold-up do not
apply.
NOTE Unless otherwise stated the abbreviation I&HAS is intended to also mean IAS and HAS.
