NFPA 72 provides the latest security arrangements to meet changing fire detection of society, signage, and the demands of emergency communications. In addition to the focus on fire alarm systems, the code includes requirements for mass notification systems used for weather emergencies; terrorist acts; biological, chemical, nuclear, and emergencies; and other threats.

Standards relate to the application, installation, location, operation, inspection, testing and maintenance of alarm systems against fire, systems of monitoring stations of
