What type of systems does the prohibition specifically exclude in relation to smoke control?

The correct answer relates to the specific regulations or codes governing smoke control systems. Prohibitions regarding smoke control typically aim to ensure that systems associated with explosiveness or direct smoke management during a fire are handled with distinct standards. By excluding smoke control systems from certain general prohibitions, the code acknowledges that smoke control systems are specially designed to manage smoke movement, protect building occupants, and maintain safe egress paths during a fire.

This exclusion allows for the appropriate design, installation, and maintenance of these systems, ensuring they can function effectively in emergencies. In contrast, temperature control systems, smoke detection systems, and fire suppression systems do not fall under this specific exclusion, as their primary functions differ from the essential purpose of smoke control systems, which is fundamentally about managing smoke specifically during a fire event. Understanding this distinction helps to comprehend why these systems are treated differently in regulatory terms.
