Sprinkler pump backup

Hello everyone,

We have been appointed to carry out the M&E design for the complete refurbishment of a leisure centre. The life safety loads will include evacuation lifts, smoke extract fans, and sprinkler pumps.

The sprinkler pump set consists of one electric pump and one diesel pump, with each pump capable of handling the full load.

We will provide an emergency diesel generator as a secondary supply for the lifts and smoke extract fans. Should we also include the sprinkler pump load, or does the diesel sprinkler pump effectively serve as the backup for the electric sprinkler pump?

Thank you for reading.
