Lakewood Elementary is an elementary school located at 2363 Setchfield Ave, Victoria, BC. It opened in 1994, was expanded in 2013, and had additional portables installed in 2017. The fire alarm system is mostly original.

System Specifications (1994-present)[edit | edit source]

FACP[edit | edit source]

The building is protected by a Notifier NFS2-640C hybrid-addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main electrical room. The main building and one portable are wired as conventional, while the other portables are addressable. The system runs Notifier’s FlashScan addressable protocol, and the system coding is continuous for all bells, and temporal for the horn/strobes.
The NFS2-640C replaced the original EST 6632 in 2017 due to not having enough capacity for the new portables.

All notification appliances in the original school are Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bells (10” gong).
