Принцип работы насосной установки спринклерной системы пожаротушения,  в  состав которой входит жокей-насос
В случае падения давления воды в спринклерной системе, первым включается жокей-насос. Если расход воды небольшой и жокей-насос справляется с восполнением утечки, то через некоторое время после достижения верхнего предела заданного давления он выключится. Если же это не протечка, а открылось несколько спринклеров и расход воды значительный, то даже при работающем жокей-насосе давление продолжает падать. В этом случае, по сигналу второго реле давления, включается пожарный насос. Резервный агрегат включается в случае невыхода основного на рабочий режим. Независимо от того, потушен пожар или нет, пожарные насосы сами не отключаются, их можно выключить только вручную со шкафа управления.

Jockey Pump

A jockey pump is a small pump connected to a fire sprinkler system and is intended to maintain pressure in a fire protection piping system to an artificially high level so that the operation of a single fire sprinkler will cause an appreciable pressure drop which will be easily sensed by the fire pump automatic controller, causing the fire pump to start. The jockey pump is essentially a portion of the fire pump's control system.
In the U.S.
The application of a jockey pump in a fire protection system is covered by documents produced by the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association,) known as NFPA 20 "Fire Pumps" Standard and NFPA 13 "Design and Installation of Fire Sprinkler Systems". These must be inspected as with any other part of the system per NFPA 25 "Inspection and Testing of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems".Fire protection systems are governed in most states by statute, building code, and/or fire code.
In India
This jockey pump is also a must while designing the Fire Hydrants Pumps skid for Industrial installations.While the logic followed for the effective operation of the fire fighting pumps may depend upon or vary as per the regulations in a particular country, in India, the pump manufacturers like Mather-Platt with standard Fire Pumps generally adhere to the TAC guidelines (Tariff Advisory Committee guidelines).
Although India's premier manufacturer Kirloskar Brothers Limited, with approvals from UL and FM Global, LPCB, ASIB: follows TAC guidelines (Tariff Advisory Committee guidelines), or FM GLobal and UL standards depending on the clients needs.
If one is following the TAC guidelines, follow this approach

*Once the complete fire fighting circuit is under pressure by operating the pumps for sufficient time provided all the fire hydrant valves (Single yard hydrants, Fire escape hydrants, etc)are closed, the main pump stops.
*Due to some leakages somewhere in the fire fighting piping circuit, when there is a loss of system pressure which will be constantly monitored by the Pressure sensors in the circuit, the jockey pumps receives a signal to start from the automatic control panel, and will run to augment this loss of pressure by pumping more water into the circuit. Once the pressure is maintained as per the set point, it stops.
*If any hydrant valve is opened due to some fire and water is consumed, then the jockey pump due to its small capacity compared to the main pumps (one running, one stand-by)in terms of volumetric capacity, the main pump will start and then the jockey immediately stops.This way jockey pump is important which senses the loss of pressure in the circuit first.

(continuous) current-carrying capacity
ampacity (US)
maximum value of electric current which can be carried continuously by a conductor, a device or an apparatus, under specified conditions without its steady-state temperature exceeding a specified value

ampacity
The current in amperes that a conductor can carry continuously under the conditions of use without exceeding its temperature rating.
[National Electrical Cod]

FR

courant (permanent) admissible, m
valeur maximale du courant électrique qui peut parcourir en permanence, un conducteur, un dispositif ou un appareil, sans que sa température de régime permanent, dans des conditions données, soit supérieure à la valeur spécifiée
[IEV number 826-11-13]

Ampacity, the term is defined as the maximum amount of current a cable can carry before sustaining immediate or progressive deterioration. Also described as current rating or current-carrying capacity, is the RMS electric current which a device can continuously carry while remaining within its temperature rating. The ampacity of a cable depends on:

• its insulation temperature rating;
• conductor electrical properties for current;
• frequency, in the case of alternating currents;
• ability to dissipate heat, which depends on cable geometry and its surroundings;
• ambient temperature.

Electric wires have some resistance, and electric current flowing through them causes voltage drop and power dissipation, which heats the cable. Copper or aluminum can conduct a large amount of current before melting, but long before the conductors melt, their insulation would be damaged by the heat.

The ampacity for a power cable is thus based on physical and electrical properties of the material & construction of the conductor and of its insulation, ambient temperature, and environmental conditions adjacent to the cable. Having a large overall surface area may dissipate heat well if the environment can absorb the heat.

In a long run of cable, different conditions govern, and installation regulations normally specify that the most severe condition along the run governs the cable's rating. Cables run in wet or oily locations may carry a lower temperature rating than in a dry installation. Derating is necessary for multiple circuits in close proximity. When multiple cables are near, each contributes heat to the others and diminishes the amount of cooling air that can flow past the individual cables. The overall ampacity of the insulated conductors in a bundle of more than 3 must be derated, whether in a raceway or cable. Usually the de-rating factor is tabulated in a nation's wiring regulations.

Depending on the type of insulating material, common maximum allowable temperatures at the surface of the conductor are 60, 75 and 90 degrees Celsius, often with an ambient air temperature of 30°C. In the U.S., 105°C is allowed with ambient of 40°C, for larger power cables, especially those operating at more than 2 kV. Likewise, specific insulations are rated 150, 200 or 250°C.

The allowed current in cables generally needs to be decreased (derated) when the cable is covered with fireproofing material.

For example, the United States National Electric Code, Table 310-16, specifies that up to three 8 AWG copper wires having a common insulating material (THWN) in a raceway, cable, or direct burial has an ampacity of 50 A when the ambient air is 30°C, the conductor surface temperature allowed to be 75°C. A single insulated conductor in air has 70 A rating.

Ampacity rating is normally for continuous current, and short periods of overcurrent occur without harm in most cabling systems. The acceptable magnitude and duration of overcurrent is a more complex topic than ampacity.

When designing an electrical system, one will normally need to know the current rating for the following:

• Wires
• Printed Circuit Board traces, where included
• Fuses
• Circuit breakers
• All or nearly all components used

Some devices are limited by power rating, and when this power rating occurs below their current limit, it is not necessary to know the current limit to design a system. A common example of this is lightbulb holders.

ГИС
Географическая информационная система
геоинформационная система
Информационная система, обеспечивающая сбор, хранение, обработку, доступ, отображение и распространение пространственно-координированных данных (пространственных данных). ГИС содержит данные о пространственных обьектах в форме их цифровых представлений (векторных, растровых, квадротомических и иных), включает соответствующий задачам набор функциональных возможностей ГИС, в которых реализуются операции геоинформационных технологий, или ГИС-технологий (GIS tehnology), поддерживается программным, аппаратным, информационным, нормативно-правовым, кадровым и организационным обеспечением. По территориапьному охвату различают глобальные, или планетарные ГИС (global GIS), субконтинентальные ГИС, национальные ГИС, зачастую имеющие статус государственных, региональные ГИС (regional GIS), субрегиональные ГИС и локальные, или местные ГИС (lokal GIS). ГИС различаются предметной областью информационного моделирования, к примеру, городские ГИС, или муниципальные ГИС, МГИС (urban GIS), природоохранные ГИС (environmental GIS) и т.п.; среди них особое наименование, как особо широко распространенные, получили земельные информационные системы. Проблемная ориентация ГИС определяется решаемыми в ней задачами (научными и прикладными), среди них инвентаризация ресурсов (в том числе кадастр), анализ, оценка, мониторинг, управление и ппантрование, поддержка принятия решений. Интегрированные ГИС, ИГИС (integrated GIS, IGIS) совмещают функциональные возможности ГИС и систем цифровой обработки изображений (материалов дистанционного зондирования) в единой интегрированной среде. Полимасштабные, или масштабно-независимые ГИС (multiscale GIS) основаны на множественных, или полимасштабных представпениях пространственных объектов (multiple representation, multiscale representation), обеспечивая графическое или картографическое вопроизведение данных на любом из избранных уровней масштабного ряда на основе единственного набора данных с наибольшим пространственным разрешением. Пространственно-временные ГИС (spatio-temporal GIS) оперируют пространственно-временными данными. Реализация геоинформационных проектов (GIS project), создание ГИС в широком смысле слова, включает этапы предпроектных исследований (feasibility stady), в том числе изучение требований пользователя (user requirements) и функциональных возможностей используемых программных средств ГИС, технико-экономическое обоснование, оценку соотношения "затраты/прибыль" (costs/benefits); системное проектирование ГИС (GIS designing), включая стадию пилот-проекта (pilot-project), разработку ГИС (GIS development); ее тестирование на небольшом территориальном фрагменте, или тестовом участке (test area), прототипирование, или создание опытного образца, прототипа (prototype); внедрение ГИС (GIS implementation), эксплуатацию и использование. Научные, технические, технологические и прикладные аспекты проектирования, создания и использования ГИС изучаются геоинформатикой.
