In a fire protection system, ensuring the reliable performance of the fire pump is critical. One key factor that can impact performance is voltage drop in the fire pump’s power supply. Excessive voltage drop can reduce motor efficiency, cause startup issues, and potentially lead to pump failure during an emergency.
In this article, we’ll explain how to check voltage drop in your fire pump power supply, why it matters, and how to stay compliant with NFPA 20 standards.
