Matt-
We've asked that same question and the electrician insist he can't do that.

Thank you,

Can they not just piggy-back from the Main Fire Pump panel?

I had always thought with the Fire Pump power being SUSE rated, that that is 
what they have always done.
Hence the reason the Jockey Pump ratings always matched the Fire Pumps.

We have a job with a fire pump. Electrician ran 3-phase/460v for the main pump 
but not for the jockey pump. They're asking if using a phase converter is an 
option instead of ordering a single-phase jockey pump. Anyone have experience 
with this?
