Which condition is NOT required to be met in order to utilize speakers from an emergency voice/alarm communications system for a non-fire use?

The system must be tested monthly.

Audio level outputs must be reduced for non-emergency signals.

Using speakers from an emergency voice/alarm communications system for non-fire announcements is allowed only if it does not interfere with life-safety signaling. The non-fire use must be designed so that fire-related messages remain clear and reliable, and the system should be isolated from the fire alarm control panel to prevent non-emergency announcements from affecting the fire panel or triggering alarms unintentionally. Regular testing helps confirm that the EVACS channels and speakers operate correctly and do not compromise life-safety signaling. It’s important to keep life-safety signaling uncompromised, but there is no requirement to reduce audio level outputs for non-emergency signals. Maintaining appropriate, clear levels is the goal, and lowering volume is not a code-mandated condition for non-fire use.

The non-fire use must not impair life-safety signaling

The system must be isolated from the fire alarm control panel.
