Salmonellosis - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ A disease caused by
pathogenic bacterica (often associated with chicken), which affects the
intestinal tract. The primary symptom is severe diarrhea.

the reversal of flow. - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Check valve
Overflow level - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ The maximum height
that water or liquid will rise in a receptacle before it flows over the rim.
Backflow - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ A hydraulic condition, caused
by a difference in pressures, in which non-potable water or other fluids
flow into a potable water system.
RPBP - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ A shortened name for a reduced
pressure backflow preventer
Air Gap - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ In plumbing, the unobstructed
vertical distance through the free atmosphere between the lowest
,opening from any pipe or outlet supplying water to a tank, plumbing
fixture, or other container, and the overflow rim of that container
potential cross connection - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Any
arrangements of pipes, fittings, or devices that indirectly connects a
potable water supply to a non-potable source
Dysentery - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ A disease (sometime
waterborne) caused by pathogenic microorganisms and characterized by
severe diarrhea with passage of mucus and blood
Backsiphonage - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ A backflow condition in
which the pressure in the distribution system is less than atmospheric
pressure (subatmospheric)
Hose bib - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ A faucet to which a hose may
be attached
Carrier - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ A human or animal that carries
germs and can pass them to another person without getting the disease
himself.
Reduced pressure zone backflow preventer - ACCURATE
ANSWERS✔✔ A mechanical device consisting of two independnetly
operating, spring-loaded check valves with a reduced pressure zone
between check valves.
, Auxiliary supply - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Any water source or
system, other than the potable water supply, that may be available in the
building or premesis.
Actual Cross Connection - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ Any
arrangement of pipes, fittings, that connects a potable water supply

designed to prevent backsiphonsge, consisting of one independently
operating spring-loaded check valve and an independently operating
spring-loaded air-inlet valve.
Bypass - ACCURATE ANSWERS✔✔ In cross-connection control, any
pipe arrangement that passes water around a protective device, causing it
to be ineffective.
