The 3-business-day cancellation applies to a PERS unit under which condition?

• A. Only for single-device systems
• B. Only when there are two or more stationary protective devices without licensed installation
• C. Only when there are two or more stationary protective devices used to announce intrusion or fire, installed by a licensed alarm company as part of a home security system
• D. Never applies to PERS units

Answer: (C)

The rule being tested is about when a 3-business-day cancellation right applies to a PERS unit as part of an alarm system. In California, that cooling-off period is tied to having a monitored home security system installed by a licensed alarm company that includes at least two stationary protective devices used to announce intrusion or fire. When a PERS unit is integrated into such a system, the customer gains the three-day window to cancel without penalties.

So the correct condition is: the PERS unit is part of a home security system installed by a licensed alarm company and there are two or more stationary protective devices that announce intrusion or fire. Standalone PERS units or setups with only a single device don’t trigger that cancellation right, and the requirement isn’t met if the installation isn’t by a licensed alarm company or isn’t part of a multi-device security system.
