Course Description: Fire Alarm Acceptance Test 101 pairs every code requirement with a step-by-step field procedure, a concrete example, and explicit pass/fail criteria. Attendees leave knowing not only what NFPA 72 Chapter 14 and the California Fire Code require — but exactly how to perform each test, what to look for, and what authority the AHJ has when things go wrong.
Content is drawn directly from NFPA 72 (California-adopted edition), the California Fire Code, the California Electrical Code, and NFPA 13, with specific attention to provisions that differ from national baselines due to California amendments.
