[QUOTE="UNG, post: 478446, member: 8931"] Rather confused by the OP as it gives the impression that the mods to the system have been carried out by a number of companies over the years while the maintenance and testing has been carried out by one. Questions would need to be asked why the system is not currently zoned properly, is this because nobody suggested / spec'ed a change of panel to 8 or 16 zones and it's location as the building was extended and / or modified. Without seeing any layout drawings, the fire risk assessment, or the existing system wiring and without knowing why the existing panel is being changed now it would appear that it is time for the customer to bite the bullet and replace the existing system with one that suits the premises and current legislation. My thoughts would be an addressable panel with I/O units to pick up the existing detection modified to improve the zoning and even look to replace some of the existing with addessable detectors, VADS would also need to be installed to comply with current legislation Seems to me that the horse has long since bolted and now somebody has decided to close the gate is this because of an RRO visitation?
