Which NEC article is related to Fire Life Safety?

• A. Article 450
• B. Article 310
• C. Article 760
• D. Article 600

Answer: (C)

Fire Life Safety hinges on systems that detect a fire and alert occupants so they can evacuate, and a primary NEC focus for this is fire alarm systems. The NEC assigns all the requirements for designing, wiring, and installing these life‑safety communications to a single article dedicated to fire alarm systems. That article covers what kinds of conductors and equipment can be used, how they must be installed and supervised, power supply and battery backup, initiating devices (like smoke detectors and pull stations), notification appliances, and how the system interacts with central monitoring.

So the article dedicated to Fire Alarm Systems is the one that directly addresses Fire Life Safety, making it the best fit. The other options cover different electrical topics: transformers and related equipment, conductors and ampacity, and signs or similar devices, which are not about fire life‑safety signaling.
