This is on a plan I am reviewing for a local AHJ. I questioned the engineer/designer's layout (actually rejected it) in a review letter. He has the test header being fed from a tee in the by-pass line located downstream of the check valve but upstream of the last control valve. I was uncomfortable with that arrangement. (There was also no shut-off valve in the test header line).

this other guy usually do?
