In order to comply with relevant fire safety regulations (i.e. BS 5839:1998), it
is required that in the event of fire, that failure of the circuit to which the
loudspeaker is connected does not occur before evacuation of the building is
complete. Suitable measures include: -
a) use of terminal blocks (for connection to primary) with a melting point of
not less than 650 C, for example constructed from ceramic materials;
c) use of terminal blocks of a lower melting point but protected with thermal
insulation;
d) use of terminal blocks such that, on melting, an open-circuit or a short-
circuit does not occur.
