Setting off fire alarms in an "abandoned" school

Описание: Fire alarm test #102

This building has a very interesting history. It was originally built in 1979 as a middle school. It was built with what I would assume was a early simplex 2001 FACP with the silver door cabinet. The signals used were simplex 4050-80 light plates with some kind of audible signal. However this building received a system "upgrade" in the late 1990s and the panel was replaced with a Harrington signal HS-3400 addressable FACP with RSG Tbars. The signal of choice was first generation Wheelock AS horn strobes with the unique sideways appearance. However, in order to fit the smaller Wheelock AS onto the original 4050-80 backboxes, simplex 4903 strobe plate bodies were used as retrofit plates. Its also possible that before the Harrington system was installed, Simplex at one point upgraded the 4050-80s to 4903-9101 strobe plates but I do not know for sure. In the early 2010s, this middle school was actually shut down and used by local law enforcement to run active shooter type drills. It has since fallen into a state of disrepair and has a very creepy vibe. Ive heard the district plans on repairing, and reopening this building as a school again in the coming years. It is very cool to be able to explore what feels like an untouched abandoned building urbex site.
