The C-TEC EVAC-ALERT BS 8629 evacuation panel is the trade kit we stock for UK high-rise residential blocks that still use a stay-put strategy. The listing is the EAP2/8/CA/CHASSIS, a 2-loop, 8-zone EVAC-ALERT panel in a GERDA vandal-resistant cabinet. It speaks C-TEC CAST protocol and gives the fire service toggle switches at the access point so a floor, or the whole building, can be alerted to evacuate without relying on the stay-put sounders alone.
BS 8629 evacuation alert is a separate system from the fire detection and alarm system. On a typical UK new-build or retrofit block, the panel sits in a secure lobby or fire-service entry, with alert sounders on the storeys named in the evacuation strategy. Installers use it where the fire risk assessment or building control wants a dedicated evacuation alert system, not a general fire panel with extra bells. The chassis version is the one we list for jobs that already have the cabinet arrangement on the drawing.
