An inlet breeching at ground level provides the connection to the water supply. The system is normally dry and is charged
by the fire brigade in an emergency. Breeching inlets have either 2 or 4 inlet connections complete with 2.5” male instantaneous
inlets to BS336 fitted with non-return valves, 1” drain valve and caps and chains. A 100mm (4”) rising main uses a 2-way
inlet breeching in a vertical or horizontal position. A 150mm (6”) rising main uses a 4-Way inlet breeching. Inlet Breechings
comply with the requirements of BS 5041 Part 3.

The Breechings are normally housed in inlet cabinets, normally recessed into the external wall of the building in a vertical
or horizontal position, 4 -way breechings in a square inlet breeching cabinet, manufactured in accordance with BS 5041 Part
5. Cabinets for foam inlets are available on request.
