Fun Fact: In the UK, Instead of Monthly fire alarm tests, they do their fire alarm tests WEEKLY. If you have a commercial fire alarm system in your home and you live in the UK, I honestly feel bad for you. IDEA: 30 Second lamp test for Monthly tests and 60 second lamp test for Annual tests
Seems strange that you would require a lamp test that long that would not prove any additional information and on many panels will give firmware panel ID and other system information

Does the attachment on the firealarm's breaker still allow the circuit breaker to trip under fault conditions, or does it force the breaker to remain on?
The handle cannot move but the breaker still trips. It's a common misconception that holding the handle on stop the breaker from tripping however that's not true as I have a video showing that. Same reason why when a breaker is tripped you can still push the handle on but it won't actually turn on unless you turn it off first.
Because spring hinges perform worse than door closers. That would make the door struggle to close more. The door doesn't latch because it's bent, changing the closing hardware would not fix that. Especially not installing spring hinges which have less power than a hydraulic door closer and is why multiple are required for a legal residential fire door.

Nic you might not believe me, but in America EST is royal liable because my grandma‘s work has an EST system in it and it’s not like the crappy systems in Canada. It’s actually really liable my work has EST Sega and some sort of heat detectors I don’t know which one they are and we haveEST Genesis horn, strobes and strobes. It’s a really reliable system.

Sometimes I don't but it's a job and it entertains others so you got to keep going and then other times I do enjoy making videos and sharing information and knowledge
Would it be possible to have it so that if one system goes of once(like you currently have) it goes into supervisory,but if another device gets pulled/set off it puts the other one into alarm,that way it would verify that there is an actual fire
Not with the current set up of two wires going either way being monitored once the monitor module activates from a closed circuit it can't activate again
@nics-systems-electric not outside my expectations. From Manitoba myself, been watching a few of your videos lately. Some cool stuff. Should take a look into homeassistant and esphome if you haven't already. Would be interesting to see if you could safely integrate a lot of those system outputs into homeassistant.

It actually does
It’s weird how the alarms are synced so well that you can’t really tell which alarm you’re hearing until you're right at it
It is supposed to be synchronized
I think every house should come with a commercial fire alarm system.
Would add a lot of expense and most don't know how to operate them or maintain them
hey man i'm thinking ab putting one in my parents place but idk if theyd be ok w it since it involves putting more holes in th walls
Greate video like the detail and the content is always great
I LOVE UR VIDS
Nic, you should get one of system sensor’s more rare PC2R/WL-LF and install it somewhere
A chime strobe would've been perfect for the garage due to nosy neighbors. Also I like your CN shirt, didn't know you liked railroad stuff

Do you even have an iPhone?
Yes this was recorded on IPhone
@@nics-systems-electriciPhone 11?
Nice video, I love it 💯🔥.
i love how the cardbord notifier logo on the annunciator can't fit lol
You should do a lamp test to make sure the LEDs are working.
I have done those I guess I didn't get one on camera
@@nics-systems-electriccan you get one on camera next system test?
@@Harper_DobniYT next verification will be a year from now
@@nics-systems-electricI mean next monthly test
To verify everyting is in alarm, if you go into read point status it will tell you each device in order if its in alarm or normal.
I feel the Solo spray works better in a detector tester rather than spraying it directly into the detector from watching system test videos
Yes that is with any brand that will work better when contained just have found the solo stuff in general does not work as quickly as other brands
What is the purpose of the green and white wires inside the duct detector?
Cool video man!

I like the low frequency sounders that you have on your system. Nice.
31:50 You shorted out my SLC, you mother!🤣
Nice awesome test
Cool.
Do you pull it for fun? Also how much does the panel cost?
Panels are worth a couple thousand
Hi Nic I have a Rare Version of the GXS and I have a Bosch Tbar
1st gen GXS?
My school district uses wheelock, notifier, and system sensor
Nick instead of replacing the door, how about you spring loaded hinges for the door I’ll probably make it latch
Because spring hinges perform worse than door closers. That would make the door struggle to close more. The door doesn't latch because it's bent, changing the closing hardware would not fix that. Especially not installing spring hinges which have less power than a hydraulic door closer and is why multiple are required for a legal residential fire door.
In the main garage I have the same garage wall controll
When the fire panel goes into an alarm what is the decibels for it
Amazing video. How many AH in the batteries
18 which is the minimum size the 320 can have
Alot have changed last year but this year would be better
If your family were ever to move, would you remove or leave the system?
Won't move houses are worth too much here once you have one that is owned
Hey Nic with the garage sounder why does it have a different soun too all the others?

Wake up babe a new Nic systems, and electric video
Try deodorant spray on a smoke detector 9:16
That would be a bad thing to use it will dirty your detectors
How much did you spend on that system?
