FM is acceptable in some cases depending on the AHJ. Most accept an item if it's FM Approved but I've run into those who did not. They insisted on a UL label.

Mike ________________________________ From: Sprinklerforum <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> on behalf of Parsley Consulting via Sprinklerforum <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2020 1:26 PM To: Luis Perea via Sprinklerforum <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: Parsley Consulting <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: Re: Fire Pump NFPA 20 Per the 2019 edition of NFPA 20: 4.7.1* Fire pumps shall be dedicated to and listed for fire protection service. The identical language was contained in the 2013 and 2016 editions. It would be a good idea to be familiar with the term "listed" as defined in NFPA 20 [also 2019 edition]: 3.2.3* Listed. Equipment, materials, or services included in a list published by an organization that is acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction and concerned with evaluation of products or services, that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment or materials or periodic evaluation of services, and whose listing states that either the equipment, material, or service meets approprite designated standards or has been tested and found suitable for a specified purpose. So, it appears the short answer is "yes." sincerely, Ken Wagoner, SET Parsley Consulting 350 West 9th Avenue, Suite 206 Escondido, California 92025 Phone 760-745-6181 Visit the website<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.parsleyconsulting.com/__;!!B5cixuoO7ltTeg!Rbgr_B67TZS4bzgOK7xpXlikv5xfmK-iEV4tyS4EAeOoCYLXM1yaQiFvNZ8IP8itMA$> On 01/23/2020 9:55 AM, Luis Perea via Sprinklerforum wrote: Hi Everyone Does The Fire Pump needs to be UL to comply with NFPA 20?
