Yes, this is correct. However, the original question is asking what would happen if a fire broke out inside the elevator machine room. Certain things will happen in a certain order. Think about how a fire acts, you’re going to have smoke first, then heat, and the heat will gradually rise. What is going to get activated first, the smoke detector, heat detector, or sprinkler head? This is one of these things where the fire alarm system is actually going to control the functions of other systems in the building, not just sound the horns and strobes! So something to think about. I’ll post the answer this evening if you can’t get it.
Doesn’t the smoke detector go off first that’s what activates the system and puts it into recall. Then the heat detector is what shunts the system, then the sprinkler activates and controls the fire.
