New Zealand has one of the highest recorded successful operations of fire sprinkler systems, which can be attributed to the rigorous standards and associated legislation to which systems are installed and maintained.

This standard is used extensively across the fire protection industry. NZS 4541 provides an integrated set of rules for the design, installation, and maintenance of sprinkler systems, so that systems reliably protect against the loss of life and minimise property damage from fire by controlling the fire: within a specified area, and to allow escape before levels of toxic by-products of combustion become life-threatening. As part of the trial, Standards New Zealand will, from time to time, survey participants about the usefulness of the digital format.

For a limited time, Standards New Zealand is making this standard freely available in a dynamic, feature-rich digital format as part of a pilot that will expire in September 2021.
