But it does say if it is a horizontal pipe from a cross main then it is a
branch line...doesn't mean I agree, but they do make us apply it.

Subject: RE: Restraint of Branch Lines
I don't believe the intent was to restrain the individual armovers, as their
short length usually will not allow them the motion we're trying to
prevent.(Perhaps the TC could provide a maximum length of armovers, vs.
single head branchlines.) But the branchline they are attached to must be
restrained, and if they are on a crossmain or feed main, those are already
"Braced" a higher level of restraint.

There was a proposal (13-283) to require restraint on drops greater than 10
ft which the TC rejected.
