If you asking how far a FDC be located from a hydrant, then the answer is as follows:
NFPA 13 - Does not have a requirement. NFPA 14 - Has a requirement. 6.4.5.4: Fire department connections shall be located not more than 100 ft (30.5 m) from the nearest fire hydrant connected to an approved water supply. Hope this helps, John John August Denhardt, P.E.
