A sprinkler system protects a building against what?
The spread of fire. Takamo added: Fire... But one would question why would there be sprinklers through out a building, if the fire broke out in the kitchen, would they all come on? The answerer is no. Sprinklers are installed in "zones". If a fire broke out in the kitchen, then the sprinklers would operate in the kitchen, and the rooms adjacent to the kitchen as a preventative measure. Each of sprinklers have a "trigger" that with heat, they bend or melt so that the valve opens. When the remaining sprinklers on the circuit detect a momentary drop in pressure, they open as well. Zones have an additional measure as well. Zones usually over-lap each other in that each zone will have one sprinkler from an adjacent zone so that if in spite of the preventative zones release of water, and the fire spreads into that zone as well, then the one sprinkler from the next zone will activate the others in the corresponding adjacent zones. So...If the fire broke out in the kitchen, then the rooms surrounding the kitchen will activate. If the fire spreads into an adjacent room, then the one sprinkler that didn't activate will, to inhibit the fire from spreading to those rooms as well.
