Résumé This Regulation, as in accordance with the provisions of the Macedonian Law on protection and rescue operations, prescribes relevant technical norms and rules for firefighting hydrant networks. The provisions of this text do not apply to automatic fire-extinguishing devices that use water. Hydrant network is applied as a separate metal stable installation of pipelines, devices and equipment, where water from a reliable source is brought to a protected area and fire protection facilities and it is activated manually. Groundwater can also be used to supply such hydrant networks (also by drilled wells). If a suction pump is used to draw water from wells, the water level should not fall more than 6 m below ground level. If a submersible pump is used, the water level may drop by more than 6 m below ground level. The inflow of water into a well can be demonstrated by trial pumping of water during most unfavorable period (dry period of at least 60 days). Atmospheric water intended to supply the hydrant network is collected in tanks or pools that are designed to be filled. Potable or drinking water sources and distribution network should not be connected to other sources designated for supplying of hydrant networks subjects of this text (article 11).
