Checking the fire systems on the vessel. What should an ETO know?

Greetings! In this article I propose to understand the issues of fire systems on a vessel, namely fire alarms and fire extinguishing methods used on a vessel. As usual, we will consider these issues from the perspective of an ETO.

What is the relationship of an electrician to ship fire systems, as well as how to check all kinds of fire extinguishing systems, we will analyze in this article. In such articles, I mainly focus on practice, so we will consider the conditions when you need to demonstrate your knowledge to the maximum when checking certain ship systems to successfully pass any inspection by any inspectors.
