Introduction
This European Standard is drafted on the basis of functions which are to be provided on all
power supply equipment. The power supply equipment may have its own cabinet, or may be
housed with other equipment of the fire detection and fire alarm system, such as the control and
indicating equipment. A fire detection and fire alarm system may use more than one power
supply equipment.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies requirements, methods of test and design assessment and
performance criteria for power supply equipment (PSE) of fire detection and fire alarm systems
installed in and around buildings (Function L of Figure 1 of EN 54-1:2011).
This European Standard provides for the assessment and verification of consistency of
performance (AVCP) of power supply equipment (PSE) to this EN.
