Discuss NFPA 20 standards and other regulations that guide pump sizing and pressure requirements. Consider factors like building size, contents, potential fuel sources, and occupancy. Offer examples: a high-rise office building vs. a warehouse storing flammable materials, highlighting the need for different pump capacities and configurations.
