SOLUTIONS | GET AN A+
1. The pressure that exists in the distribution system, measured at the residual hydrant at the time the flow readings
are taken at the flow hydrants.: Residual
Pressure
2. The pressure that exists at a given point under normal distribution system conditions measured at the residual
hydrant with no hydrants flowing.: Static
Pressure
3. A valve that allows flow in one direction but prevents flow in the opposite direction.: Check Valve
4. A valve that has components that show if the valve is open or closed. Examples are outside screw and yoke (OS&Y)
gate valves and underground gate valves with indicator posts.: Indicating Valve
5. Fire hydrant that has its operating valve located at the base or foot of the hydrant rather than in the barrel of the
hydrant. When operating properly, there is no water in the barrel of the hydrant when it is not in use. These hydrants are
used in areas where freezing may occur.: Dry-Barrel Hydrant

department pumpers with water on private property.: Private Fire Hydrant
8. A valved connection on a water supply system having one or more outlets that is used to supply hose and fire
department pumpers with water.: Public Hydrant 9. The hydrant that is used for measuring static and residual pressures
during a flow test.: Residual Hydrant
,10. A hydrant used in areas that are NOT susceptible to freezing. The barrel of the hydrant is normally filled with
water.: Wet-Barrel Hydrant

appropriate pressure.: Private fire service main's

_______ above the final grade.: 18 in
18. The center of a hose outlet shall not be more than____above the floor of a hose house.: 12 in
19. Master streams shall be delivered by monitor nozzles, hydrant-mounted monitor nozzles, and similar master stream
equipment capable of delivering more than________.: 250 GPM ( 946 L/min)
20. The top of the pipe shall be buried not less than _______ below the frost line for the locality.: 1 ft

mechanical damage.: 30 in
22. Pipe under driveways or roadways shall be buried at a minimum depth of____.: 3 ft
23. Pipe under railroad tracks shall be buried at a minimum depth of______.: 4 ft

31. Standard on Fire Hose: NFPA 1961
32. Standard for Fire Hose Connections: NFPA 1963
33 A device intended to remove water using gravity from piping or valve cavities, which is required to be empty when the
system is not discharging water.-
: Automatic Drain Valve (Automatic Drip or Ball Drip)
34. A valve controlling flow to water-based fire protection systems and devices.-
: Control Valve (Shutoff Valve)
35. Piping that has the property of being able to withstand deterioration of its surface or its properties when exposed
to its environment.: Corrosion-Resistant Piping 36. A lining or coating material that when applied to piping or
appurtenances has the property of reducing or slowing the deterioration of the object's surface or properties when
exposed to its environment.: Corrosion-Retarding Material
37. A connection through which the fire department can pump supplemental water into the sprinkler system, standpipe, or
other water-based fire protection systems, thereby supplementing existing water supplies.: Fire Department Connection
38. A pump that is a provider of liquid flow and pressure dedicated to fire protection.: Fire Pump
