Alarm systems - Access control systems for use in security applications - Part 7: Application guidelines
Executive summary
Guidelines for the application of automated access control systems and components in buildings.
Abstract
This European Standard, a part of the EN 50133 series, provides guidelines for the application of an automated access control system and components in and around buildings.
It covers system design, installation, handover, operation and maintenance of access control systems.
The guidelines are intended for access control systems for use in security applications. They cover systems ranging from a simple single access point up to complex multiple access point systems.
An access control system can actuate and monitor access point actuators and sensors (apas). However, these guidelines do not cover the apas.
The access control system may be able to communicate with other systems (e.g. an intrusion alarm system).
This standard does not recommend whether or not an automated access control system should be installed in any given premises.
