Testing smoke sensors should be conducted according to the vendor specifications to ensure compliance with safety standards and accurate results. Vendors provide specific testing procedures to account for the sensor type, environment, and operational characteristics, ensuring that tests do not damage the equipment or provide false results.
Detailed Explanation:
Smoke sensors can vary by type and sensitivity, so following the vendor's recommended testing procedure ensures the sensors function correctly without risking sensor damage. Injecting smoke or using a self-test might be insufficient or could lead to inaccurate assessments if they do not align with the vendor's testing protocol.
