STATE OF NEW JERSEY DEFINITIONS:

“Burglar Alarm” means a
security system comprised of an interconnected series of
alarm devices or components, including systems
interconnected with radio frequency signals, which emits
an audible, visual or electronic signal indicating an alarm
condition and providing a warning of intrusion,
which is designed to discourage crime.

“Fire Alarm” means a security
system comprised of an interconnected series of alarm
devices or components, including systems interconnected
with radio frequency signals, which emits an audible,
visual or electronic signal indicating an alarm condition
and which provides a warning of the presence of
smoke or fire.
