Fire Detection & Alarm Systems and Emergency Warning & Intercom Systems Logbook
Combined AS 1851—2012 Section 6 Routine Service Records
Fire Detection & Alarm Systems and Emergency Warning & Intercom Systems perform closely related functions within a building’s fire safety and emergency communication arrangements.
Fire detection equipment identifies alarm conditions and initiates relevant system responses. Emergency warning equipment communicates warning signals to building occupants, while emergency intercom equipment enables communication between the emergency control point and Warden Intercom Points (WIPs).
Where these systems are installed together, maintaining their service records in separate books can create additional administration for technicians and building managers.
The Fire Detection & Alarm Systems and Emergency Warning & Intercom Systems Logbook from Fire Factory Australia brings their applicable routine service records together in one dedicated hardcopy book.
Developed around AS 1851—2012 (Incorporating Amendment No. 1), Section 6, the logbook provides structured records for:
- Fire Detection & Alarm Systems
- Smoke & Heat Alarms
- Emergency Warning Systems
- Emergency Intercom Systems
- Fire Detection & Control Equipment Associated with Special Hazard Systems
- Smoke Hazard Management Detection & Control Functions
- Fire Detectors & Sampling Points
- System Batteries
- Occupant Warning Functions
- System Interfaces
- Warden Intercom Points
- Speaker Circuits
The combined logbook includes Monthly, Six-Monthly, Yearly and Five-Yearly service record sections, depending on the equipment and applicable schedule.
One Logbook. Two Essential Systems.

Why Choose a Combined Fire Detection & Emergency Warning Logbook?
Fire Detection & Alarm Systems and Emergency Warning & Intercom Systems are often connected through the building’s fire safety infrastructure.
A fire alarm may originate at a Fire Indicator Panel (FIP), activate occupant warning functions, communicate with an Emergency Warning System and initiate other connected building systems.
When both system groups are installed at the same site, a combined service record offers a practical way to document their related inspection and testing activities.
The combined logbook provides:
- One physical book for both system groups
- Dedicated schedules for each applicable system
- Fire detector and sampling-point test records
- Battery capacity and condition fields
- Emergency warning acoustic measurements
- Warden Intercom Point communication records
- System interface test records
- Defect and corrective-action documentation
The combined format does not remove the distinction between the systems or their service requirements.
Each system retains its relevant AS 1851 schedule references and dedicated recording areas.
For sites requiring only one system group, Fire Factory Australia also offers separate Fire Detection & Alarm Systemsand Emergency Warning & Intercom Systems logbooks.
What Systems Does the Combined Logbook Cover?
The logbook brings together several related systems and functions addressed under AS 1851—2012 Section 6.

Speech Intelligibility Test Records
The Five-Yearly Emergency Warning System section provides fields for:
| Record Field | Information |
|---|---|
| Location | Test location |
| Reference CIS | Reference value |
| Recorded CIS | Measured result |
Testing is undertaken in applicable areas where speech intelligibility is required.
The records allow measured results to be compared with the relevant reference values.
Emergency Warning Sound Pressure Level Records
The Five-Yearly Emergency Warning System section also provides fields for:
| Record Field | Unit |
|---|---|
| Location | Reference point |
| Reference SPL | dBA |
| Measured SPL | dBA |
These measurements provide a record of the sound pressure level at the applicable reference locations.
Emergency Warning Speaker-Circuit Impedance Records
The Five-Yearly Emergency Warning System section includes a speaker-circuit impedance table.
The fields are:
Circuit | Required Impedance | Measured Impedance
The source schedule identifies checks relating to changes in impedance from the previous test and the applicable rated amplifier output.
The measurements can be retained in the combined logbook alongside the speech intelligibility and SPL results.
Defects, Test Results & Corrective Actions
The combined logbook provides dedicated areas for recording:
Item No. | Defect Type | Results / Comments | Corrective Action | Completed Repairs
These fields allow technicians to document:
- The equipment or service item
- The defect identified

The records can therefore show more than a simple pass or fail result.
They provide a traceable history of the service activity and any associated rectification work.
One Combined Logbook or Two Separate Logbooks?
Fire Factory Australia offers both formats.
| Product | Intended Record Coverage |
|---|---|
| Combined Fire Detection & Emergency Warning Logbook | Both Fire Detection/Alarm and Emergency Warning/Intercom system groups |
| Fire Detection & Alarm Systems Logbook | Fire Detection/Alarm and associated Section 6 records |
| Emergency Warning & Intercom Systems Logbook | Emergency Warning and Emergency Intercom records |
The combined version is designed for sites where both system groups are installed and one consolidated service record is preferred.
For sites requiring separate books, the dedicated products are available:
Fire Detection & Alarm Systems Logbook
Emergency Warning & Intercom Systems Logbook
The appropriate format depends on the equipment installed and the site’s record-keeping arrangements.
AS 1851—2012 Section 6
AS 1851—2012 is the Australian Standard for the routine servicing of fire protection systems and equipment.
Section 6 addresses fire detection and alarm systems and includes the relevant service requirements for associated warning, intercom, detection and control functions.
The combined logbook brings together multiple Section 6 schedules in one physical book while retaining the relevant service frequency and recording requirements for each system.
It is designed to support documentation of:
- Inspection
- Functional testing
- Preventive maintenance
- Survey activities
- Measurements
- Defects
- Corrective actions
The logbook is a record-keeping tool and does not replace the Standard or the need to carry out the required service activities.
AS 1851—2012 Requirements in NSW
From 13 February 2026, NSW requires applicable essential fire safety measures in new and existing Class 1b and Class 2–9 buildings to be maintained in accordance with AS 1851—2012, subject to applicable alternative maintenance arrangements specified by a Performance Solution.
This does not mean every building within these classifications contains all the systems covered by the combined logbook.
The relevant measures depend on the building and its applicable fire safety documentation.
Building owners should refer to the building’s Fire Safety Schedule and other relevant documents to identify the systems requiring maintenance.
