No but the conductor that feeds fire pump is connected to line side of 100A internal breaker. So the fire pump conductor from gen set to 200A enclosed breaker has no OCPD
Correct so why mention the 100 amp CB as it is not in the fire pump circuit.

Service conductors to a fire pump are often fed underground from the POCO transformer to the FP controller service disconnect without added OCP.
Why would a generator feed not be similiar
