Do you mean the required smokes in each bedroom, outside the bedrooms, and on each
Floor interconnected?
Placement of sensors?
Can you be a little more specific?

I want to know the detector location in car parking, kitchen, bedroom? And same thing distance between the detector? And how it will be interconnecting?

First of all, there are two types of detectors: photoelectric and ionization. Both have their uses and photoelectric is cheaper. Steam and dust will set off photoelecric detectors but not ionization. Ionizaion is more expensive. Photoelectric needs to be cleaned periodically.

How many detectors and where: minimum stairs and halls.
Cumbustable gas/CO detectors in areas that use gas.

Heat detectors in the attic.

Generally each detector is 120V wired and then there is a line between detectors such that if one goes off the others go off.

You will get better luck if you post this question in an Electrical Engineering Question Board.


This question is not for Mechanical engineers:cool:
