If a fully automated system is installed in a building, the facility must be important enough to require 24-hour, on-site security. Under these circumstances, replacing the automated system with a manually activated system may add very little risk.

CONT

Si elle est dotée d'un système entièrement automatisé, l'installation doit être considérée comme importante ou sensible au point d'affecter du personnel 24 heures par jour à la sécurité des lieux, auquel cas on aggraverait peu le risque si on adoptait plutôt un système à enclenchement manuel.
