1 Scope
This Technical Specification includes requirements for warning devices used in Intrusion and Hold up
Alarm Systems installed in buildings. Four grades of warning device are described corresponding to
each of the four security grades given in the European standard EN 50131-1. Requirements are also
given for four environmental classes covering applications in internal and outdoor locations as
specified in EN 50130-5.
