DEFINITIONS
a.
Active mode: That in which some type of signal is continuously
sent across the link, resulting in simple link breaks being
readily detected.
b.
Fail-safe: The capability to monitor system functions and report
an alarm when a failure is detected in a critical system function.
c.
Installer: Either the Contractor or a subcontractor with whom the
Contractor has a firm contractual agreement.
d.
Intruder: An animate object at least 1220 mm 48 inches in height,
34 kg 75 pounds in weight and 0.113 cubic meter 4 cubic feet in
volume, moving through the protected zones or portals at a
velocity of 30 to 3000 mm 0.1 to 10 feet per second.
e.
Sensor zone: A geographic position for which an intrusion must be
identified and displayed and may be the combination of multiple
detection devices.
f.
Element: As used in this section means a constituent part of a
complex signal such as an ac or dc voltage or current, ac phase,
or frequency duration.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
[Provide new] [and] [modify existing] intrusion detection system (IDS),
including associated equipment and appurtenances. System design shall
include supervising installation of rigid or flexible conduit for IDS as
required during site preparation, running of system wires and cables, and
system component installation, component testing, and system checkout. Each
system shall be complete and ready for operation. [Existing system was
manufactured by [_____], and new equipment shall be compatible with and
operate accurately and reliably with the existing system.] Include
materials not normally furnished by the manufacturer with the IDS equipment
as specified in [Section 16302N UNDERGROUND TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION]
[and] [Section 16301N OVERHEAD TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION] [and] Section
16402 INTERIOR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM.
