Opinions please

 

NFPA #13 2013 ed section 8.15.11 Electrical Equipment.

 

Room is used as a server room, only the server and the UPS are in the room, the 
room is 2 hour fire rated.

 

Section 8.15.11.3 Sprinklers shall not be required in electrical equipment room 
where all of the following conditions are met:

 

(1)    Room is dedicated to electrical equipment only        yes

(2)    Only dry-type electrical equipment is used.                Yes

(3)    Electrical equipment is installed in a 2 hour rated enclosure
including protection of penetrations      yes

(4)    No combustibles storage is permitted to be stored in the room.
yes

 

Based on this can the sprinkler heads be eliminated from this room?

 

Would still have to get it by the AHJ.

 

Thank you
