[QUOTE="Murdoch, post: 501765, member: 24445"] If the smokes are [B][U]mains powered[/U][/B], and are out of date I would code them as C2 as they need replacing - whether this is correct is maybe open to debate but I think we in such cases have a responsibility to check them. I tend to check the date on them and add a note to the EICR as most people don't realise they need to be replaced. Last week I did an EICR - the smokes were battery, but there was a dedicated smoke alarm circuit - so I tested it properly and noted that the smokes were battery powered [/QUOTE]
