Where the locked-rotor current value does not correspond to a standard overcurrent device size, the next standard overcurrent device size shall be used in accordance with 240.6. The requirement to carry the locked-rotor currents indefinitely shall not apply to conductors or devices other than overcurrent devices in the fire pump motor circuit(s). {20:9.2.3.4}\n\nThe provisions of this section shall be used for sizing overcurrent protective devices for a Limited Service Fire Pump.\n\nSection 695.4(B)(2)(b) – Revise Section 695.4(B)(2)(b) to read as follows:\n\n(b) On-Site Standby Generators. Overcurrent protective devices between an on-site standby generator and a fire pump controller shall be selected and sized to allow for instantaneous pickup of the full pump room load but shall not be larger than the value selected to comply with 430.62 to provide short-circuit protection only. {20:9.6.1.1}\n\nInformational Note: The provisions of this section shall be permitted to be used for sizing overcurrent protective devices for a Limited Service Fire Pump.\n\nSection 695.4(B)(3) – Revise Section 695.4 (B)(3) to read as follows:\n\n(3) Disconnecting Means. All disconnecting devices that are unique to the fire pump loads shall be red in color and comply with items 695.4(B)(3)(a) through 695.4(B)(3)(e).\n\nSection 695.4(B)(3)(e) – Revise Section 695.4 (B)(3)(e) to read as follows:\n\n(e) Supervision. The power continuity shall be supervised by 1 of the following:\n\n(1) Central station signals confirming power source availability and pump running where central station connection is provided as required by building occupancy or use.\n\n(2) Local signaling device, audible and visual, for power source availability and pump running that is activated at a continuously attended location where central station connection is not otherwise required.","path":["New York City Administrative Code","Title 28","Chapter 11: The New York City Electrical Code"],"source_url":"https://files.amlegal.com/pdffiles/NewYorkCity/Admin/XML.zip","current_through":"Local Law 2026/135 (enacted August 31, 2026)","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-06T02:48:57Z","sha256":"4e08677cd1bbf361381597f0b430e78e25312de7c11da330725f2de11340c6ee","source_id":"us-nyc","stale":false,"prev":"us-nyc/n.y.c.-admin.-code-695.3","next":"us-nyc/n.y.c.-admin.-code-695.6"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
