According to private security regulations INT/316/2011 of BOE 01/02/2011 (Spain) and the IRP/198/2010 29-03-10 (Catalonia), certain professional activities and some types of businesses are obliged to the installation of grade 3 alarms in Barcelona.
Who needs a grade 3 alarm installation in Barcelona?
These premises or businesses must have an alarm that is connected to an Alarm Reception Centre and a video surveillance system or CCTV (Closed Circuit Television). Which are these businesses?
- Jewellers and silversmiths.
- Lotteries.
- Armouries.
- Petrol stations.
- Casinos, bingo halls and premises with gaming machines.
Banks.
Although it is not a mandatory requirement for other businesses, having a good alarm system with connection to an Alarm Receiving Centre (Grade 3) and a CCTV system considerably increases their protection, both for the goods inside and for their employees or customers.
What is the function of an Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC)?
An ARC is responsible for receiving and managing all the signals that reach it through a security system. When these alarms are triggered, they are recorded and, depending on the type of alarm, action is taken in one way or another. An operator is responsible for checking the images of the site using the video surveillance camera. In this way, it is determined whether it is a false alarm or if there is a real risk, and depending on the type of alarm, the corresponding security forces (police, fire brigade, etc.) are notified or the signal is disconnected.
The installation of grade 3 alarms in Barcelona and in any city in our country therefore encompasses several security methods that favour the aforementioned businesses, as it provides them with maximum protection.
