Ok guys I'm not familiar enough with power source requirements so looking for guidance.
I have a client trying to some how get out of buying the Fire Pump with a transfer switch. This is located in Cambodia so it's not looking good. It's in the capital but because I live here so I know they haven't got a year without a power outage lasting more than 4 hours. Plus they have a on-site generator. So we have 2 sources of power and they have their own transfer switch. They want to pull a dedicated line from their transfer switch. I think this violates section 9.2.3, I'm not sure but I think there are more than 1 disconnect upstream. Unless it could be a feeder connection by 9.2.2(4). And per 9.3.1 we don't even have a FDC because the fire department won't do anything even if it is burning. So I see a connection from the main electrical coming in and another main line from the generator itself. Not from their transfer switch. Am I right in my thinking? Sent from my iPhone Aaron M.
