1. Strobe Coverage
Consider a room, which is 40' square. How many 15cd wall-
mounted strobes are required to adequately cover this space?
Correct Answer: 4
A 40' x 40' room generally requires four wall-mounted strobes to
meet spacing requirements.
2. Strobe Testing Frequency
what is the testing frequency of a strobe?
Correct Answer: Annually
3. Corridor Strobe Candela rating
In a corridor application, visible appliances shall be rated not less
than ____ cd.
Correct Answer: 15
4. Household System Battery Recharge
Consider a household fire alarm system where the primary power
,is provided by a circuit that can be switched off by means other
than a circuit breaker. The battery must be recharged in:
Correct Answer: 4 hours
5. Detector Drift Compensation
Where automatic drift compensation of detectors is provided, the
control unit shall identify the affected detector when the
compensation limit has been reached.
Correct Answer: (Statement is correct as per NFPA 72)
6. Smoke Detector Spacing in a Corridor
A fire alarm system requires the use of smoke detectors in a
corridor. The corridor is 10' wide and 120' long. The ceiling is
smooth and flat and 10' high. What is the minimum number of
smoke detectors in the corridor?
Correct Answer: 3
NFPA 72 allows for smoke detectors to be spaced up to 30' apart
in a corridor. A 120' corridor would require at least 3 detectors.
7. Detector Spacing with Beams
The fire alarm system design for a room called for smoke detector
spacing based on a smooth flat ceiling. Upon inspecting the
room, it is determined that the ceiling has beams. The beam
spacing is less than 40% of the ceiling height. NFPA 72 permits
smooth ceiling spacing in the direction parallel to the beams and
____ spacing in the direction perpendicular to the beams.
Correct Answer: One half smooth
,8. Duct Detector Requirements
The working drawings for a fire alarm system show that 2 duct
detectors are required. The building is a single story with 4 HVAC
units (1-5,000 cfm, 1-4,000 cfm, 1-3,000 cfm, 1-2,000 cfm). How
many duct detectors are required?
Correct Answer: 2
The question states the drawings specify 2 detectors; the number
of units does not change this requirement.
9. Fire Alarm System Revision Documentation
when an addition is made to a fire alarm system after the initial
installation, the addition shall be recorded on a revised version of
the original completion documents. The revised record of
completion document shall include:
Correct Answer: a. the revision date
10. Record of Completion Documentation
The record of completion documentation shall be completed by
the:
Correct Answer: a. contractor who installed the system
11. Battery Charging Installation Location
Battery charging installations shall be located in areas designated:
Correct Answer: a. and marked
12. Carbon Monoxide Signal Priority
Carbon monoxide signals shall take precedence over:
Correct Answer: Trouble and Supervisory signals
, 13. FACP Software Protection
All software and firmware that pertain to the FACP of a protected
premises fire alarm system shall be protected from:
Correct Answer: C. unauthorized changes
14. Elevator Recall Smoke Detectors
Smoke detectors used to recall the elevator for fire fighters'
service shall:
Correct Answer: a. be connected to the building fire alarm
system
15. Emergency Control Function Interface Devices
Emergency control function interface devices shall be located
within ____ of the element controlling the emergency control
function.
Correct Answer: 3 ft
16. Soil Classification (USCS)
According to ASTM D2487, a soil is classified as fine-grained when
more than what percentage passes the No. 200 sieve?
Correct Answer: B) 50%
Per ASTM D2487 (USCS), soils with 50% or more passing the No.
200 sieve are considered fine-grained.
17. Soil Type Identification
You are inspecting a construction site and notice that the soil
appears to be a fine-grained, cohesive material with good bearing
capacity. What type of soil is this likely to be?
