I work in a hospital and we are having a pseudo CMS survey done.
One of the things our "inspector" brought up was an electrical closet that was missing a sprinkler head.
After looking into it deeper out of the 45 similar closets we have only 15 have a sprinkler head.
These are small 25 square feet or less, non combustabe construction.
All 45 of these closets have a system smoke detector in them.
Do I go back and have sprinklers installed in the remaining 30?
I have never been a big fan of mixing sprinklers and electrical panels.
I have seen the damage that can be done by a small leak.
