What Is a Fire Hydrant Block Plan?

A fire hydrant block plan shows the layout of a building or site’s hydrant system, helping firefighters locate connections, valves and other equipment during an emergency.

Depending on the system, it can show:

  • Fire hydrants and their identification numbers

  • Booster assemblies and isolation valves

  • Fire mains, pipe sizes and water supplies

  • Pumps and storage tanks, where installed

  • Relevant pressure and system information

Standards & Requirements

AS 2419.1 — Fire hydrant installations: System design, installation and commissioning is the principal technical reference for hydrant block plans. The applicable requirements depend on the system, its approved design and the standard edition relevant to the installation.

In Victoria, hydrant systems also sit within the building and plumbing regulatory framework, including ongoing Essential Safety Measures obligations.

COAD88 EVAC PLAN uses fire services drawings and confirmed system records to prepare clear plans reflecting the installed system.
