S 6.30 Emergency circuit<br />

Initiation responsibility: Agency/company management; staff<br />

responsible for emergency preparedness<br />

(contingency planning); PBX officer<br />

Implementation responsibility: Administrators<br />

In order to have lines available for the initiation of measures in emergencies, a<br />

feature offered by some PBXs (telecommunications facilities) is to allocate,<br />

by means of a so-called emergency circuit, the existing incoming and outgoing<br />

lines to predetermined terminals. This ensures that essential institutions will,<br />

in case of emergency, retain their capacity to act. Use should be made of this<br />

option wherever it is available.<br />

Additional controls:<br />

- Is the allocation of lines for emergency circuit updated?<br />

- Is activation of the emergency circuit defined in the Contingency <strong>Manual</strong>?<br />

- Has the use of lines been designated in the Contingency <strong>Manual</strong>?<br />
