Guest RichardSm Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Hi I'm looking for some advice as I'm struggling to find any information at all regarding this certain subject. My father is currently employed by a well known company and has accidentally caught a fire alarm switch , it was located inbetween two fuel tanks, their is no signs saying it was a fire alarm and it had no cover over the switch and he was not informed about this on the induction he was on , he pressed the switch as the fuel tanks had tripped due to low fuel in them and he believed with it being located between the fuel tanks that it was a reset switch, my question basically is , should this switch be correctly identified and should it be located between two fuel tanks as if their was a fire it would be a big risk to press the fire alarm. Thank you and I look forward to your response Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 What do you mean by a fire alarm switch, is it a break glass call point because if there was no cover or glass it would have actuated and the system would be in the alarm mode? Does it have other purposes like actuating a fixed fire extinguishing installation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green-foam Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 A picture of the switch in question would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
