wiring/cable codes and requirements

[tbw111]

Would you please tell me what national codes cover the wiring of residential alarm systems with smoke detectors. In particular all four wire devices, power supply and siren.

All so what is the requirement for phone/data cable when installing a residential alarm system

The NFPA 70 NEC, Article 760 and the NFPA 72 Fire Alarm Code.

This would would have the same requirements regardless of any alarm system. Art. 800 covers phone/data.
