What is required of a FEDC regarding the fire alarm system after a drill?

A Fire Emergency Drill Conductor (FEDC) must restore the fire alarm system to normal operation after a drill to ensure that the system is fully operational and ready to respond to any actual emergencies. This involves resetting any alarms that were activated during the drill, ensuring the system is back to its standard state, and confirming that all components are functioning properly.

This step is crucial because a fire alarm system that is not returned to normal could lead to confusion or delays in responding to a real fire emergency. Continuous readiness of the fire alarm system is paramount for the safety of occupants and compliance with safety regulations. By restoring the system, the FEDC plays a key role in maintaining a safe environment within the building.
