Section 901.5 Need to look at Fire Code. Section 901.6 Monitoring of sprinkler and fire alarm systems is important with all the trade-ups, etc., as part of the system reliability. Discussion regarding this item was centered around the fact that small communities will object to having to monitor the systems. See section 911.1. Check NFPA 72 to see if it clarifies.
