Public safety: fire equipment.

Existing law requires equipment for fire protection, including fire hoses and fire hydrants, that has threaded couplings and fittings, as specified, to meet the national standard for that equipment adopted by the National Board of Fire Underwriters. For that fire protection equipment without threaded couplings or fittings, as specified, existing law requires the equipment to be approved by the State Fire Marshal. Existing law also requires the State Fire Marshal to adopt and submit building standards that define the requirements for fire protection equipment. This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
