MARKING TABLE FOR INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE OF

REMOTELY MONITORED DETECTOR ACTIVATED CCTV SYSTEMS TO

BS 8418:2015

INCLUDING COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF

BS EN 62676-4:2015

NSI auditors use this marking table when inspecting detector activated CCTV systems installed by NSI NACOSS Gold and NSI Systems Silver approved companies to comply with BS 8418:2015 and relevant clauses of BS EN 62676-4:2015.

Although BS 8418:2015 references BS IEC 62676-4:2014, BS EN 62676-4:2015 supersedes BS IEC 62676-4:2014 and has identical content. Therefore the provisions of BS EN 62676-4:2015 can be applied.

This marking table includes references to BS 8418:2015 and BS EN 62676-4:2015. Demerit marks may be given for non-compliance with clauses of BS 8418, and clauses of other standards called up by BS 8418, for which no specific reference has been made in the text of this marking table.

We draw your attention to NSI Technical Bulletin 0029, which provides guidance on the application of BS 8418:2015.

1.Each Section of this marking table contains one or more Deviations (see pages 3 to 10 below).

2.Each Deviation is given a Clause reference (e.g. BS 8418/15: 4.6.6.2), a Code (e.g. K1) and a score (e.g. 2 Marks).

3.NSI Inspection Reports detail Deviations by Clause, Code, Description, (Marks).

Example:

BS 8418/15: 4.6.6.2 K1 No local indication of a tamper condition to the person setting the system at supervised premises (2)

4.Marks are awarded for each individual Deviation as shown in Note 3 above. However, the maximum number of Marks awarded (either 1 or 2) in any Section is shown in the table above.

Example:

If two Deviations K1 (2 Marks) and K2 (2 Marks) are raised under Section K (Tamper detection and indication), a total of 2 Marks (not 4 Marks) are awarded against Section K.
