	'''The Diplomat''' is a small 5 story apartment building located at 709 14 Ave SW, Calgary, AB. It was built in 1961, and the fire alarm system was installed in ~~the late 80s~~. Like many small apartment buildings it consists of a 120V circuit connected to AC Bells via the pull stations.

	The building is protected by a hardwired ~~3-wire~~ 120V fire alarm system, so there is no panel.
