Fire Safety System (FSS): Definition and Categories
Fire Safety System (FSS)
The FSS, or Fire Safety System, refers to all the means implemented to detect, inform, intervene, or even evacuate a Publicly Accessible Building in the event of a fire.
The implementation of a specific FSS type in a facility is determined by the Safety Commission or by the facility's Safety Regulations.
They are classified into five Categories (A, B, C, D, and E) according to the specific fire risk level of the establishment. Category A is the most comprehensive, and Category E is the most basic. Depending on its category, an FSS must be capable of managing automatic extinguishing, smoke extraction, the potential shutdown of technical and/or electrical installations, the activation of fire doors, and the evacuation of occupants.
