FDC goes on pump discharge side.
Pump not smart enough to know FD took 50 PSI suction from city and boosted
it to 150, so now your pump discharge is 250 PSI.
Plug pit, install FDC on side of building.

I have a system with (2) Risers, (1) wet & (1) dry, both being supplied from
the pump discharge. The FDC is located out at the street on the system side
of the RPZ.

Need more info.  Multiple alarm valves?  but if I am understanding
correctly, the FDC needs to be connected after the fire pump and before the
alarm valves etc.
