Diesel Generator Building
Diesel Generator Building
(OP)
I have two situations -
1.A diesel generator building approx 400 ft2 separate from the main building - Does the Gen Building require sprinkler protection?
2. A diesel generator building seperate from the main building with an electric fire pump in the main building backed up by the generator - Does the Gen Bldg require sprinkler protection?

To your basic questions, I would say no to questions 1 and 2. In question number 2, it appears as if the electric fire pump in the protected building is connnected to a standby or emergency power system. If the building is not a high-rise, standby or emergency power is not required by NFPA 20, unless you have electrical power reliability issues.
