The British Standards Institution has published BS 9263:2016, which outlines the commissioning, maintenance, and remote support for intruder and hold-up alarm systems. While the changes from the previous standard DD 263:2010 are minor, a new informative annex regarding standby battery capacity has been introduced. Stakeholders are encouraged to familiarize themselves with BS 9263 before the new edition of PD 6662 is published, likely in 2017.
