The C-TEC Hush-ActiV HAK/1 is a Grade C domestic fire detection and alarm kit to BS 5839-6 (2019) for individual flats, houses and apartments. It pairs a low-level Hush-ActiV controller with C-TEC's ActiV range of conventional detectors and sounders. It can be used anywhere Grade D mains/battery alarms are specified, and uses the same wiring scheme as most mains/battery alarm systems.
