4.3 ACCESS TO STATIONS WITH BREECHING INLETS

R Rationale - Clause 4.3

Breeching inlets shall be visible from the fire engine accessway/ fire engine access road to avoid delay in locating them upon arrival of the firefighting crew. The breeching inlets shall not be sited more than 18m away from the fire engine accessway/fire engine access road so that only one hose length need to be deployed for connection between the fire engine appliance and breeching inlet and to limit the distance firefighters need to travel.

Station fitted with rising mains and automatic sprinkler system shall have fire engine accessways/ fire engine access roads for firefighting appliances within 18m of the breeching inlets. The breeching inlets shall be visible from the fire engine accessways/ fire engine access roads.
