It should contain columns for en tering the date of the test, initials of persons performing the test, and comments. An alarm system should be tested at a specific time, at least once a week. The com pleted forms should be filed for insurance purposes. If the system is not designed to operate under farm conditions, the chances for malfunction are increased. Dust and dander, fertilizers and chemicals, gases and vapors are all problems that can cause malfunctions on most alarm systems which use electro mechanical components. Also, power surges and lightning can be most damaging.
