Who is responsible for conducting acceptance tests of the complete emergency system?

The installation contractor
The building owner
The authority having jurisdiction
The electrical engineer

The correct answer is: The authority having jurisdiction

The authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) is responsible for conducting acceptance tests of the complete emergency system. This responsibility is rooted in the need for safety and compliance with local codes and regulations. The AHJ ensures that the installation meets all applicable standards and requirements, confirming that the emergency system functions correctly and safely before it is put into service. While other parties, such as the installation contractor or the electrical engineer, may perform tests during the installation process or participate in the acceptance testing, the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the system complies with the relevant codes and operates as intended lies with the AHJ. This role helps to protect the public and ensures that systems are reliable in emergencies, as the AHJ has the authority to enforce regulations and require modifications if any issues are found during testing.
