The standard shall not apply to underground mains serving sprinkler systems
designed and installed in accordance with NFPA 13D - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔-
The Purpose of this standard shall be to provide a reasonable degree of
protection for life and property from fire through installation requirements for
private service main systems based on sound engineering principles, test data,
and field experience. - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔-
The provisions of this standard reflect a consensus for what is necessary to
provide an acceptable degree of protection from the hazards addressed in this
standard at the time the standard was issued. - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔-
Residual Pressure - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- The pressure that exists in the
distribution system, measured at the residual hydrant at the time the flow
readings are taken at the flow hydrants.
Pg. 1
,Static Pressure - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- The pressure that exists at a given point
under normal distribution system conditions measured at the residual hydrant
with no hydrants flowing.
Flow Test - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- A test performed by the flow and
measurement of water from one hydrant and the static and residual pressures
from an adjacent hydrant for the purpose of determining the available water
supply at that location.
Flushing Test - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- A test of a piping system using high
velocity flows to remove debris from the piping system prior to it being placed in
service
Hydrostatic Test - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- A test of a closed piping system and its
appurtenances consisting of subjecting to an increased internal pressure for a
specified duration to verify system integrity and system leakage rates.
Check Valve - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- A valve that allows flow in one direction
but prevents flow in the opposite direction.
Indicating Valve - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- A valve that has components that show
if the valve is open or closed. Examples are outside screw and yoke (OS&Y) gate
valves and underground gate valves with indicator posts.
Dry-Barrel Hydrant - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- Fire hydrant that has its operating
valve located at the base or foot of the hydrant rather than in the barrel of the
hydrant. When operating properly, there is no water in the barrel of the hydrant
when it is not in use. These hydrants are used in areas where freezing may occur.

, Flow Hydrant - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- The hydrant that is used for the flow and
flow measurement of water during a flow test.
Private Fire Hydrant - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- A valved connection on a water
supply system having one or more outlets that is used to supply hose and fire
department pumpers with water on private property.
Public Hydrant - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- A valved connection on a water supply
system having one or more outlets that is used to supply hose and fire
department pumpers with water.
Residual Hydrant - CORRECT ANSWER ✔✔- The hydrant that is used for measuring
static and residual pressures during a flow test

-Water Spray Fixed Systems
-Foam Systems
-Private Hydrants
-Monitor Nozzles or Standpipe Systems with reference to water supplies
-Hose Houses
