What is the diff btw Conventional & Addressable Fire Alarm
System???

Answer Posted / s.gnanaprakasam

In addition to manivannan's answer i want to add one more
point.In conventional system all detectors in one zone were
connected in one straight line.so, if there is any failure
of one detecter in that line means futher detectors will
not get power and they will not work.
But in addressable also known as inteligent fire
alarm system, all detectors in the zone were connected
insame type of conventional system with small different is
thetail end detector's another end[one end is with previous
detector] is connected to fire alarm. In such a way all
detectors were in one closed loop.so,is there is any
failure in any detector means other detectors adjacent to
faulty detector may get power supply from other end of the
loop.Hence reliability of the system increases.
