The CCTV system design shall enable monitoring of buildings and facilities from a security control room; furthermore, the system must be able to integrate with third party systems including but not limited to the Building Management System (BMS), Access Control Systems (ACS) and the Intruder Detection System (IDS).
The system must be designed, engineered, furnished, delivered, installed and tested prior to handover, with appropriate handover documentation signed by the receiving authority and the installation engineers. The system must be supported by an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) as well as being connected to a generator to ensure for long term continuity in the event of power loss.
The security surveillance system must support the following recording types:
•
Motion Detection
•
Continuous Recording
•
Video Analytics
Each branch/facility shall maintain a register which records all security equipment failures, including details regarding time and date of failure; type of failure; action taken; date of rectification. All failures and intentional stoppages of the system shall be recorded in the log.
All cameras shall be installed in protective enclosures at locations and heights which are not easily accessible. These enclosures shall be rated to prevent the ingress of dust, dirt and moisture that might affect the operation of the camera. Vandal proof housings shall be used for cameras installed at a height which is accessible to people. Outdoor camera enclosures shall be rated to a minimum of IP66, with a sun-shield.
All siting of cameras should appropriately consider factors such as lighting ambient conditions.
