UBC UFC back then or one of the other model codes. UFC, much the same as
IFC.

I'm interested in the 1997-1998, 

If I recall there were no IFC/ IBC then.

Subject: Re: Valve Supervision

Assuming you are in a part of the world applying US codes and standards, as
already stated the IBC requires NFPA 13 systems to be electrically monitored
(over 20 sprinklers that is).  The next question that comes to mind is what
about when other factors drive installing sprinklers and the IBC does not
require them?  The IBC states they too must comply with the code so must be
electrically supervised.
