Specifically, I'm looking to find what the rule is for buildings that have horns (as opposed to speakers) and in MA. But even knowing where to find it in NFRPA 72 and or NFPA 1 would allow me to look up any ammendments in MA.
In any event, the question is where to find the rules governing audible devices in stairwells. I know that if its a high rise or a hospital and therefore you have a voice system, then you put them in but only use them for announcements. But what does this say about stairwells where the systems uses horns. Logice dictates that they should not be put in. But a code reference would be nice.
Much appreciated,
Mike
