If you're using it as your check valve then yes. If you have another check in the riser (AV) then no. That's by 7.1.1.2 as mentioned by the others (I hope some of you got that and I hope that more got it now that I pointed it out). Enforcement around here is spotty. If it's residential there doesn't seem to be much concern about it in these parts. By USC rules puttint anything but the test gauge hose adapters on any of those test cocks would be considered altering the device and abbrogating its listing. You have to watch out for backflow nazis.
