Pre insident planing

1) You have arrived first Engine Company on scene of a reported structure fire and see water coming out the front door with a bit of smoke coming from the building. Would you shut down the water to the Fire Sprinkler system? If so why? If not when would you?

2) When arriving at an occupancy with a Fire Sprinkler system, what is one procedure that all departments proceed with? Explain what happens after that?

3) Upon arrival at a Residential house fire with a Fire Sprinkler system inside, would the FD Engineer be able to hook up to the FDC (Fire Department Connection) to support the system? What about a Commercial structure with a Fire Sprinkler system inside? Why or why not?
