1、NFPA 25 2017 Edition Standard for the Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems TIA Log No.: 1287 Reference: Various sections Comment Closing Date: October 19, 2017 Submitter: Tracey Bellamy, Telgian Corporation 1. Add NFPA 70E, Standard for Electrical Safety in the

2、 Workplace, 2015 edition to section 2.2. 2. Revise 4.9.6 and associated Annex A material to read as follows: 4.9.6* Electrical Safety. 4.9.6.1 Legally required precautions shall be taken when testing and maintaining electric controllers for motor-driven fire pumps. 4.9.6.2 At a minimum, the provisio

3、ns of NFPA 70E shall be applied. A.4.9.6 WARNING: NFPA 20 includes electrical requirements that discourage the installation of a disconnect means and limit overcurrent protection in the power supply to electric motordriven fire pumps. This is intended to ensure the availability of power to the fire

4、pumps. Where equipment connected to those circuits is serviced or maintained, the service person could be subject to unusual exposure to electrical and other hazards. It could be necessary to establish special safe work practices and to use safeguards or personal protective clothing, or both. The re

5、quired category of personal protective equipment will vary dependent upon the specific installation details and associated incident energy levels. The determination of such incident energy levels can be established by conducting an incident energy level analysis as provided in Annex D of NFPA 70E or

6、 by utilization of the PPE Category Method provided by NFPA 70E, Table 130.7(C)(15)(A)(b), where applicable. Use of the PPE Category Method requires that the maximum available short-circuit current and maximum fault clearing time for the actual installation do not exceed those indicated in NFPA 70E,

7、 Table 130.7(C)(15)(A)(b). See also NFPA 70E for additional safety guidance regarding the determination of the incident energy and the required level of personal protective equipment. The provisions of NFPA 70E require that the owner label the equipment with information regarding the electrical haza

8、rds associated with the installation. Where such labeling is not present, the technician cannot make a determination for safe work practice on the equipment without further assessment of the incident energy associated with the installation. 3.

40、otor within 5 percent below or 10 percent above the rated (i.e., nameplate) voltage shall be considered acceptable. Substantiation: Item 2: The proposed change to the body of the standard sets a minimum requirement to utilize the provisions of NFPA 70E as a baseline for protective measures required

41、when working on electric controllers for motordriven fire pumps. The additional language added to the Annex provides reinforcing directive that every electric motordriven fire pump controller installation is different and that the calculation of incident energy, the resultant labeling and the requir

42、ed PPE for such will be different for each. Item 3: The proposed changes to the body of the standard provides exception to requirements to activities that require access to an energized electric fire pump controller based on safety concerns with completing such. Additionally, Section 8.1.1.2.12 was

43、correct to match the required annual frequency as included in Table 8.1.1.2. Item 4: The referenced sections of the Table have been corrected as needed and additional references added for completeness. Item 5: The provisions of the recommended Table have been modified to eliminate requirements to ti

44、ghten electrical connections and check accuracy of voltmeters/ammeters installed on electric fire pump controllers. Items 6: The proposed change limits the need to take voltage and amperage readings to those conditions where the readings can be taken without opening the electric fire pump controller

45、. Additionally, reading on the event log are limited to conditions where such work can be completed without opening and energized electric fire pump controller. Item 7: With the removal of a requirement to take voltage and amperage readings as included in this TIA, the need for the use of calibrated

46、 equipment is eliminated. Items 8: The proposed change limits the need to take voltage and amperage readings to those conditions where the readings can be taken without opening the electric fire pump controller. Additionally, reading on the event log are limited to conditions where such work can be

47、completed without opening and energized electric fire pump controller. Item 9: The proposed change limits the taking of voltage and amperage readings to those conditions where an external means is provided on the electric fire pump controller. Item 10: The change provides that the alarm sensors that

48、 require access to an energized electric fire pump controller are to be checked at an alternate location outside the controller. Item 11: The proposed change to the body of the standard sets a minimum requirement to utilize the provisions of NFPA 70E as a baseline for protective measures required wh

49、en working on electric controllers for motordriven fire pumps. The additional language added to the Annex A.4.9.6 provides reinforcing directive that every electric motordriven fire pump controller installation is different and that the calculation of incident energy, the resultant labeling and the required PPE for such will be different for each and is referenced here for clarity. Item 12: Language is added to indicate that voltage and amperage readings are only taken where an external means is provided on the electric fire pump controller to
