Commissioning
BS5839-1:2002 states that a 'competent person' must be appointed to take responsibility for the commissioning of a Fire Safety System
Fire Bright is a BAFE accredited company and its commissioning team are FIA trained. As such, our engineers are certified to act as the 'competent person', thus providing BAFE accreditation to a system installed by our Installation team or by a third party installer
Our Commissioning Team is knowledgeable and experienced in dealing with complex cause and effect system programming, to ensure that the Fire Safety System performs to specification. This includes
- sound level check
- recording dBA deviations
- checking automated interlocks to shutdown plant and services
- 100% device activation testing of all detectors and manual call points
- device fixing and positioning
- device environment checking
- system sensitivity check, to minimise nuisance alarms
Fire Bright operates a dedicated commissioning team, which receives extensive manufacturer training on all systems, enabling them to ensure the maximum performance of the installed Fire Safety System
As part of the Fire Bright commissioning package, training is offered to the 'responsible person', to educate him/her on the system performance and operation. The BAFE certification scheme is supported by major insurance companies, who offer preferential reductions to insurance premiums to fully compliant BAFE accredited systems
