- Abstract
- A survey is made of automatic fire detection systems currently in general use in the U. K. A description of the most widely used detectors is given together with an outline of a typical system. The function of control and indicating equipment is described and the main responsibilities of the user are specified. Some aspects related to systems reliabilty are discussed.
