Fire Detection & Alarm
Addressable fire detection and alarm design to the MS EN 54 series, as the project specifies where the project specifies it, with zoning, cause-and-effect and interfaces to access control and HVAC.
Fire alarm design🇲🇹 Remote ELV Design for Malta
ELV Design Consultancy
for Malta Projects
Remote ELV, ICT, security and audiovisual design for Maltese hospitality, commercial, residential, healthcare and technical projects in Valletta, St Julian's, Sliema and Gżira.
We support architects, engineering firms, developers and contractors with coordinated ELV drawings, schedules, specifications and BIM/CAD deliverables. Fire detection follows the MS EN 54 series where specified, and the Malta Fire Service requirements are confirmed for each project.

Why Professional ELV Design Matters in Malta
The Maltese rules and market conditions that change the ELV design brief.
NIS2 framework fully in force
Malta's NIS2 framework became enforceable in January 2026. A 2026 amendment replaced the earlier advisory approach with an enforcement committee that can impose administrative fines.
Hospitality-led demand
Hotels, resorts and serviced apartments drive much of Malta's ELV work. Guest networks, access control, CCTV and in-room systems need a single design basis.
MS EN 54 and the Fire Service
Fire detection and alarm products are specified to the MS EN 54 series where the project calls for them. The Malta Fire Service reviews fire safety for public and commercial buildings.
A small, specialised data centre market
Malta's data centre market is small and dominated by a few local operators. Capacity and pipeline figures should be confirmed with the operator for each site.
Standards
Design Standards & Compliance in Malta
MS EN 54 series: fire detection & alarm
MS EN 50173 & EN 50174: cabling
MS EN 62676: video surveillance
Legal Notice 71/2025 (NIS2 Malta)
EN 50600: data centres
IEC 62443: OT security
Fire safety is reviewed by the Malta Fire Service, and building permits are issued by the Planning Authority. Cybersecurity duties under the NIS2 framework are supervised by the national competent authority, with the enforcement committee for penalties. Confirm the route for each project at the start.
The standards are confirmed for each project. MS EN 54 is used for fire detection and alarm where specified, and cabling and video standards follow the specification. Final acceptance rests with the Malta Fire Service, the Planning Authority and the project's authorised professionals.
