I am reviewing plans for an assisted living project. It has been suggested that if a generator is added to power emergency lights, then the generator would also have to be connected to the fire pump (and sized to run the fire pump).
From the NEC, it looks like it is up the the AHJ to determine if the utility is reliable enough to be a single supply. (In this case, I am acting as the AHJ). I can't find any other codes that say anything different.
I would welcome any opinions or code references.
Thanks:
Steve
