Typical is double interlock pre action, as the minimum, then based upon insurance and owner requirements, the value of data, the allowable down time (There are Data Center standards for how many hours per year they can be down , on a sliding scale. In the most rigorous you wouldn't have preaction, it would be all gas FM200 ect. In between you have both, and as I said at the bottom end you have just pre action.
It's all about money (Value) and time. (What it takes to get back up and running.) Thom McMahon, SET Firetech, Inc. 2560 Copper Ridge Dr P.O.
