No, fire system vary way too much, and are limited or required by building codes, but not specifically designed by them.
You can have countless variations, that firefighters may be totally unfamiliar with.
In practice, that has always been the case in my experience.
The firefighters knew nothing about even the simplest building fire system.

And they certainly would not know about the systems used at specialized dangerous locations like refineries.
