What about putting a large connection (4" stortz) on the end of the header so that the testing company can use a large hose monster? That's what I did on the test header at our office...... Works GREAT. One 4" X 10' hose, one big hose monster, throttle the valve and get a great test curve in a few minutes with one guy.

The test header has 4 hose connections. Inspection team tells customer that the test header needed 4 more valves in order to do the test. Customer calls and ask where thats written that each connection is rated for 250 gpm. NFPA 20 (2003) governs and table 5.25b says it only needs a total of 6. Am I looking in the right spot?
