UL 827 establishes the criteria for central station alarm services, focusing on the reliability, performance, and communication protocols of monitoring centers. This standard ensures that alarm systems transmit and receive signals accurately and promptly to and from central monitoring stations.

The standard applies to central station services that monitor burglar alarms, fire alarms, and other security systems. It includes guidelines for facility requirements, response times, data transmission, and system redundancy, ensuring that alarm events are managed efficiently.

Key users of UL 827 are central station monitoring service providers, system integrators, and manufacturers. These stakeholders rely on the standard to develop and maintain systems that meet rigorous reliability and performance benchmarks.
