About this asset

This Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) symbol is a native Revit annotation family designed for clear documentation on floor plans. The FACP symbol is a standard 2D drafting component represented by a rectangular frame containing the text acronym FACP. It is designed to be placed on life safety or electrical floor plans to denote the location of the main fire alarm system control unit. The geometry is clean, legible at standard architectural scales, and adheres to common drafting conventions for fire protection systems. As a native Revit annotation family, it remains consistent in size relative to the drawing scale, ensuring clarity when printing at various paper sizes for construction documentation.

The download is a 61 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

To use this component, load the family into a Revit project and place it using the component tool within floor plan views. It behaves as a standard annotation symbol, meaning it will maintain its physical size on the sheet regardless of the view scale. Users can align it with architectural walls or partitions to indicate the control panel's position during the design development or construction documentation phases of a project.

This symbol is essential for MEP engineers and architects preparing life safety drawings, fire alarm riser diagrams, or electrical layouts. It belongs in the documentation set for any building type requiring a fire alarm system, including residential, commercial, and industrial facilities. Professionals will find it useful when coordinating with fire protection consultants or documenting code-compliant exit and safety paths. Search for this asset when detailing electrical plans, fire safety schematics, or regulatory submission documents where clear system identification is required.
