Concerning electric security alarm systems.

SB 5573 establishes statewide safety standards for electric security alarm systems on industrial and commercial properties where local governments have no specific regulations. It requires systems to use ≤12V batteries, display "Warning: Electric Fence" signs every 30 feet, be 10 feet high (or 2 feet above barriers), include emergency deactivation for first responders, and be installed on designated outdoor storage properties (e.g., vehicle/equipment yards, excluding retail displays). The bill prohibits treating these systems as fences under general fence codes and allows local governments to maintain their own regulations or require operator permits. It specifically excludes traditional burglar and fire alarm systems from these requirements.
