Choosing a fire control panel(fire alarm system) isn’t just about adhering to legal requirements; Not only that, it’s also think about saving time, money and effort. Conventional fire panel and addressable fire alarm systems is common types of alarms that businesses use are.
Both types of alarm link devices (such as call points/strobe siren/fire alarm bell/ smoke detectors/heat detectors) to a main fire control panel. 

The main difference between the two is that with addressable fire alarm control panel, you can pinpoint exactly which device has been activated.This will enable you to find the exact location of a fire and extinguish them quickly.

With a conventional fire panel, there is no way of pinpointing the exact location of the fire. However, by wiring your building into different zones, you can get a general idea of where the fire is. For instance, if you have two floors, you could wire the first as ‘zone 1’ and the second as zone 2. So if a fire occurs in zone 1, you know that the fire is somewhere on the first floor.
