About the CFP series
The CFP is EN 54-2 and EN 54-4 certified and provides full BS 5839-1 compliance out of the box. Key platform features:
- CFP 2-Zone — entry-level conventional panel for small premises
- CFP 4-Zone — mid-size conventional panel for typical commercial sites
- CFP 8-Zone — larger conventional panel for multi-zone installations
- Conventional 2-wire detection circuits with fault monitoring
- Two monitored sounder circuits (NACs) with fault detection
- Volt-free fire and fault relay outputs for plant interface
- Networking up to 8 CFP panels for distributed conventional sites
- Walk test mode for one-engineer commissioning and weekly testing
- Enable/disable functions for managed isolations during planned works
Where the CFP fits
The CFP is the right choice for sites where conventional zone-level detection is acceptable: small offices, retail units, restaurants, care homes, small schools, churches and community buildings. For sites where individual-device-level detection or larger zone counts are required, the C-TEC XFP addressable range is the next step up.
C-TEC CFP installation training
BH Courses run a dedicated C-TEC CFP conventional fire alarm installation course covering panel wiring, zone configuration, sounder circuits, walk test workflows and BS 5839-1 commissioning sign-off. The course is suited to electricians moving into fire alarm work and to security installers expanding their fire alarm competence.
For multi-brand fire alarm training including conventional and addressable platforms in one programme, see the Fire Alarm Training Course.
