b. Verify alarm test valve alignment and tamper switch (if sealed or electrically supervised).

b. Verify valve pressure and legibility of the hydraulic nameplate.

b. Document static and residual pressure readings on a 3x5 tag and secure it to the system pressure gauge.

c. Compare results with results from previous main drain tests and original acceptance test.

d. Verify that the results are within acceptable limits or identify corrective measures.

b. If caps are removed or missing, check for obstructions.

3.2.2 The contractor shall ensure water pressure and air pressure information, as well as all tamper switch indicators accurately report to the fire alarm control panel (FACP), and ensure that the alarm and or trouble indicators reset properly.
