The majority of electrical equipment in this facility has sprinkler heads, related water pipes and drainpipes directly over or within the spray pattern of the electrical equipment as represented by the picture to the right. Install protective covers to prevent water from getting into the electrical equipment nor are physical protective devices installed to protect the actual sprinkler heads from physical damage. Both are required by National Electric Code section 110.26(F)(1)(a) through (F)(1)(d). Shields need to be installed in all areas where electrical components are within the spray pattern or have overhead water lines to prevent damage to prevent overhead water sources (sprinklers and water lines) from penetrating the enclosures. Such penetration could lead to a potentially catastrophic failure. Protective covers or cages need to be installed on unprotected sprinkler heads to prevent accidental activation with the same potential for catastrophic failure as mentioned above per plans and specifications.
