Let say there is three pumps i.e. duty pump, standby pump and jockey pump. All the pumps are for a sprinkler system. Which of the following the correct term:
1. Sprinkler pump set 2. Sprinkler pumps set 3. Sprinkler pump sets 4. Sprinkler pumpset 5. Sprinkler pumpsets
As you can see above, I am confused on whether to put 's' or not and whether there is space between the word pump and set.
Thanks & Regards, Khairil
