Properly testing alarm priorities in a PAGA system is not optional—it’s essential for safety. Even a small wiring mix-up can cause alarms to sound incorrectly, masking real emergencies and putting lives at risk. By thoroughly checking connections and ensuring emergency messages override routine signals, engineers can guarantee the system performs reliably when it matters most.
A few missed shielded cables. Some unintended ground loops. That’s all it took to reduce audio clarity in our PAGA system. Here’s what went wrong, and how you can avoid it.
PAGA systems are vital for offshore safety, delivering emergency alarms and messages across facilities. Often integrated with Fire & Gas and ESD systems, PAGA ensures fast, coordinated communication when it matters most.
Mistake 1: Not considering all the layouts of the sound coverage study In a brand new blog series will be discussing 7 mistakes we made when deploying a PAGA System. This blog will focus on the first mistake we made:
