Also known as: ‘aesFailureReason’
Definition: The reason why the automatic extinguishing system failed to operate or did not operate properly.
Need something else? Here is the complete list of all NFIRS modules and subsequent NFIRS transactions, plus a list of all NFIRS elements.
NFIRS 5.0 relational edit validation rules are provided to ensure NFIRS data is consistent and correct for the fire/reporting concepts that are being modeled. Relational edits determine relationships between multiple fields / elements. These are the rules for ‘Automatic Extinguishment System (AES) Failure Reason’.
Rule | Group | Overview |
---|---|---|
Relational Edit Rule 79 | relational edit rule 79. | |
Relational Edit Rule 81 | relational edit rule 81. |
Here are the NFIRS codes for the ‘Automatic Extinguishment System (AES) Failure Reason’ element, including any “other” values in case none of the preselected choices match:
Automatic Extinguishment System (AES) Failure Reason | Code |
---|---|
System Shut Off | 1 |
Not Enough Agent Discharged To Control The Fire | 2 |
Agent Discharged, But Did Not Reach The Fire | 3 |
Inappropriate System For The Type Of Fire | 4 |
Fire Not In Area Protected By The System | 5 |
System Components Damaged | 6 |
Lack Of Maintenance, Including Corrosion Or Heads Painted | 7 |
Manual Intervention Defeated The System | 8 |
Reason System Not Effective, Other | 0 |
Undetermined | U |
A few NFIRS elements are reused accross a number of transactions, but typically the value is captured by one transaction only.
Specification | Value |
---|---|
Requirement | Optional |
Expected Length | 1 |
Element Type | Coded Field - The coded field relating to an entry in the code table. Most coded fields allow for Plus+ One codes. For these fields the expected length of the coded entry is depicted as (National length OR Plus+ One length). Only fields with this notation in the expected length column allow for Plus+ One definitions. If the user has not provided information, an empty field should be transmitted. |
