Alarm Circuits
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) requires that alarms be installed on a dedicated circuit. This ensures that the alarms have a reliable power source and can function properly in the event of an emergency.
Local Code Considerations
It's important to note that local building codes may override the NFPA requirements. To ensure that your alarm is wired correctly and in compliance with local regulations, it's best to consult with your local building department.
Professional Installation
To be absolutely sure of the proper wiring of your alarm, you should hire a licensed and insured electrician. They have the expertise to install your alarm correctly and safely, giving you peace of mind that your home is protected.
