  • 3/18 Fire Alarm Testing Monday

    Fire Alarm Acceptance Test

    A portion of the campus fire alarm system will be tested Monday, March 18, within the following schedule. 

    6 to 7 a.m. Main building area T (floors LSB thru 1)

    6 to 8 a.m. Main building areas C, A and AA  

    9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Main building areas T (floor 1 thru PH), H and F

    9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Main Building areas L, B, and Buildings E& K, V, O, and garages 1 & 2

    This acceptance testing is being conducted by Johnson Controls, our fire alarm contractor, the UConn Fire Dept. and the UConn Fire Marshal as required by code.

    A test message will be announced preceding the start of testing. The visual alarm (strobe lights) and sounding of the audible alarm will be kept to a minimum and is anticipated to last a few minutes. In the unlikely event there is an actual fire alarm, the system will convert to normal operation.

    The remaining buildings will be tested Tuesday, March 19 – details to follow on Monday.
