FA Master Box

The IBC and state building codes require at least one manual pull station for most occupancies, however for some, such as limited R-2, you don’t need one at all per code.

Does this mean I don’t even need a master box at all for these types of occupancies? (not sure if the master box is just another manual pull box).

And lastly, if it is not needed, how do you communicate the trouble/alarm signal from the building to the central station… right from the FA Control Panel?

Thanks

not sure what you mean by master box?

code reference?
