Hi all,
Hope you can help me, I have clients engineer who I need to convince that we have to have a dedicated and separated power supply to our Auto Change Over Switches from the Alternate Supply, I know this and I have provided the details in figure A.10.8, question is:
Does it clearly state anywhere in NFPA 20 that Auto Transfer Switches have to have a dedicated supply direct from the Alternate Power Source?
I have looked but I can not find it!
Believe it or not this guy is trying supply normal power and alternate power down the same cables!!
The Project is UK so we are not as familiar with NFPA requirements as we are BS/EN, but this is the standard for the Fire Pumps on the job.
Help please!
Cheers
