CAR ALARMS

The New Zealand Security Association (NZSA) have developed a star rating system for vehicle security systems and OEM alarm upgrades.

A 5 Star car alarm system (the highest rating) is a full security alarm system including automatic engine immobilisation, battery backup siren and interior protection. The lowest (1 Star) consists of a uncertified engine immobiliser.

The Star system uses AS/NZS3749 2003 or AS/NZS4601 1999 amendment 1 (2003) as a basis for compliance, depending on the star rating and features of the system.

Harvest Labs performs testing to both these standards.
