It is both a communications AND emergency management tool to provide real-time
instructions and information to building occupants and visitors during an emergency event.

When it is safe
To notify people in a building, on a campus or a geographic area

How it Started
UFC 04-010-01
Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for
Buildings
The initial requirements
for Mass Notification
5-29-02 Oct 2004
The Air Force petitioned NFPA to
develop MNS standards
The military found that they could not use
approved fire alarm systems for Mass Notification while remaining in full
compliance with NFPA 72
UFC 04-021-01
Design and O&M: Mass Notification
Systems
requires combination voice fire alarm and
mass notification systems
Effectivity DateJune 2003

How it Started
Allow for the use of fire alarm systems
integrated with other systems
Provides guidance for the application,
installation, location, performance, and
maintenance of Mass Notification Systems
NFPA 72 – 2007
Annex E
UL 2572
CONTROL AND COMMUNICATION UNITS FOR MASS
NOTIFICATION SYSTEMS
NFPA 72 – 2010Chapter 12/25
Coordination of the functions of a mass notification system with those of a fire
alarm system is essential in order to
provide effective communication in an emergency situation.
NEW Standards by UL. For systems to comply and provide MNEC with Highest priority.

Where it is Now
Local code officials have adopted the code for MNEC quicker than any other major technology
State, local and municipal building codes
2010 2012 2013
![Page 16: MNEC 101 – Fire/Life Safety Perspective. Agenda MNEC –Why, What & When Codes –UFC –NFPA-72 MNEC (ECS) –The Parts and Pieces Audio Integrators –Why Sell](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062712/56649ca45503460f94964f98/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
UFC Requirements
An in-building mass notification system shall include one or more of the following components:
(1) Autonomous control unit (ACU)(2) Local operating console (LOC)(3) Fire alarm control interface (4) Notification appliance network (5) Initiating devices(6) Interface to other systems and alerting sources
Unified Facility Criteria
These are the building blocks of MNEC
![Page 17: MNEC 101 – Fire/Life Safety Perspective. Agenda MNEC –Why, What & When Codes –UFC –NFPA-72 MNEC (ECS) –The Parts and Pieces Audio Integrators –Why Sell](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062712/56649ca45503460f94964f98/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
NFPA Changes
– Requires Mass Notification to be part of fire alarm/life safety system. – Permits a mass notification control unit to take control of fire alarm notification
appliances including amplifiers, speakers, and strobes.– MNEC has highest priority over fire alarm.– Will require a MNEC voice message any time the priority is granted to the
mass notification control unit.– Strobes used for dual purposes shall not be marked ‘FIRE’, strobes to be blank
or ‘ALERT’.– Dedicated MNEC strobes shall be AMBER and ALERT wording.– Operation of MNS system is based on the emergency response plan.– Intelligibility of voice messages are required to meet the requirements of
chapter 7 (notification).– Visual notification to be completed through strobes, textual, graphic or video
displays.

The Key MNEC Issues …
Any message, to any device, anywhere
Open standards is essential
Integrate and interface systems
Create situational awareness
Create full interoperability
Test as frequently as practical with local, state & federal responders

Next Steps• Information
– Codes Adopted in your Marketplace
– A&Es who can use your expertise– Who is doing MNEC in your area
now?– Product
– What product will you use?– Look for Notification Product
– Wheelock, American Signal– Integration Avenues
– Software (RAVE, REACT)– ASK THE QUESTION!
