David,
Thank you.
This is what I found on the Dutch CIBV site:
http://cibv.nl/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Sprinkler_Statistics_2011-2012a.pdf
The table is on page 8.
The last column is the most significant, but the figures are about
fires controlled by sprinklers in the Netherlands only.
Apparently we have 10 million sprinklers installed.

Frans;
There is a report that was written by John Hall Jr. September 2010 call
U.S. Experience with Sprinklers and Other Fire Extinguishing
Equipment that has
a table on page that you might be thinking of.
You can probably Google it.
Very interesting report.

Subject: Sprinkler statistics
Gentlemen,
Once I saw a sprinkler statistic table saying something like this (I
don't remember the exact percentages):
Regarding fires that are succesfully controlled by sprinklers
50 % of the fires by 1 sprinkler
66 % of the fires by 1 or 2 sprinklers
75 % of the fires by upto 3 sprinklers
80 % of the fires by upto 4 sprinklers
83 % of the fires by upto 5 sprinklers
etcetera...
Does anyone recognize this table?
If so, any idea where I can find it?
I already found some statistics on the NFPA, AFSA, FM, SFPE and CIBV
websites, but couldn't find this simple table.
