Neither NFPA 13D nor IRC P2904 requires a pump to meet NFPA 20 requirements or
listing (other than the same electrical UL listing for every electric
appliance). As noted, there could be a local amendment related to care
facilities; however, until we get into NFPA 13R and/or NFPA 13 applications, no
such requirement exists.

Subject: [Sprinklerforum] 13D generator requirements
I am working on a group home, which by all of the Code analysis, requires a
standard 13D system. They propose to install a pump and tank system. Would a
back up power supply be required for this? I have never been asked about it but
can’t find much that addresses it.
