This British Standard gives recommendations for the design, installation, commissioning, maintenance, operation and remote monitoring of detector-activated CCTV systems, whether “permanent” or temporary/portable.

This standard applies irrespective of the length of time the CCTV systems are installed and/or whether the equipment can be re-used on another site.

This standard is intended to provide recommendations to the following parties:

  1. CCTV companies, on best practice for the design, installation, commissioning, maintenance and operation of detector-activated CCTV systems;

    NOTE This includes the installation and maintenance engineers working for the CCTV company.

  2. Remote video response centres (RVRCs) monitoring CCTV systems; and

  3. customers regarding the management of CCTV systems.
