Appendix 4 – Commercial Fire 6-hour Supervision
The NFPA 72 2013 Edition updated the requirement to supervise the transmission path at least once every 6
hours, from an earlier version of 24 hours. This requirement is upheld in 2016 edition as well. Telguard
commercial and fire products support this feature, and it must be enabled for each subscriber by selecting
6-hour supervision during registration.
