Wall mounted visible notification appliances shall be mounted such that the entire lens is not less than how many inches above the finished floor?

• A. 82
• B. 96
• C. 90
• D. 80

Answer: (D)

The statement tests the required mounting height for wall-mounted visual notification devices. The bottom edge of the lens must be at least 80 inches above the finished floor. This height positions the lens above most furniture and obstacles, ensures a clear line of sight for occupants (including those seated or in wheelchairs), and helps prevent tampering or accidental contact. Heights higher than 80 inches would also meet the rule, but 80 inches is the minimum.
