(a) All methods, devices, and assemblies intended to protect water supply systems from cross connections shall be of a type recognized and approved in accordance with ch.
SPS 384 and as described in sub.
(4).

SPS 382.41(3)
(3) General requirements. Water supply systems and the connection of each plumbing fixture, piece of equipment, appliance or nonpotable water piping system shall be designed, installed and maintained in such a manner to prevent the contamination of water supplies by means of cross connections.
SPS 382.41(3)(a)1.1. Water supply systems shall be protected against contamination due to cross connections or backflow conditions by one of the methods or devices specified in Table 382.41-1 depending upon the situation or Table 382.41-2 depending upon the specific application or use, and the limitations specified in sub.
(4).
SPS 382.41(3)(a)2.
2. For the situations described in par.
(b) 3., cross connection control shall be provided as part of the fixture fitting outlet or in the water supply piping for the fixture fitting outlet.
SPS 382.41(3)(b)1.
1. The designation of a high hazard or low hazard situation shall be determined on the basis of how a toxic or nontoxic solution is intended or recommended by the manufacturer of the solution to interface with the potable water supply system.
SPS 382.41(3)(b)2.a.a. A continuous pressure situation shall be considered to exist when a pressure greater than atmospheric within the water supply system exists for more than 12 continuous hours.
SPS 382.41(3)(b)2.b.
b. A noncontinuous pressure situation shall be considered to exist if the conditions in subd.
2. a. do not occur.
SPS 382.41(3)(b)3.
3. A high hazard cross connection situation shall be considered to exist for a connection of the water supply system to:
SPS 382.41(3)(b)3.b.
b. Any other piping system conveying water from nonpotable sources, including but not limited to lakes, rivers, streams or creeks.
SPS 382.41(3)(b)4.
4. Except as provided in subd.
5., a high hazard cross connection situation shall be considered to exist at:
SPS 382.41(3)(b)4.a.
a. A water supply hose bibb, faucet, wall hydrant, sill cock or other outlet which terminates with hose threads allowing a hose to be attached;
SPS 382.41(3)(b)4.b.
b. A water supply faucet, wall hydrant or other outlet which terminates with a serrated nipple allowing a hose to be attached;
SPS 382.41(3)(b)4.c.
c. A water supply faucet, hydrant or outlet serving a sink used for building maintenance in a public building;
SPS 382.41(3)(b)4.d.
d. A chemical pot-feeder or automatic chemical feeder is installed to serve a boiler, cooling tower or chilled water system; and
SPS 382.41(3)(b)4.e.
e. In the water supply piping connecting to the outlet of a fire hydrant for any purpose other than fire fighting.
SPS 382.41(3)(b)5.
5. A cross connection may not be considered to exist at the hose threaded outlet installed for the sole purpose of any of the following:
SPS 382.41(3)(b)5.bm.
bm. Connecting individual portable dialysis machines when enclosed in a lockable box.
SPS 382.41(3)(b)6.a.a. A high hazard situation shall be considered to exist for the connection of 2 water supply systems one supplied by a public water supply and the other system supplied by a private well.
SPS 382.41 Note
Note: The interconnection of a public water supply system and another source of water is addressed in ss.
NR 811.06 and
811.07 and must be approved by the Department of Natural Resources.
SPS 382.41(3)(b)6.b.
b. Cross connection control devices used in conjunction with automatic fire sprinkler systems shall be listed by an acceptable testing agency for such an application under the standards governing the design and installation of automatic fire sprinkler systems.
SPS 382.41(3)(b)7.
7. A cross connection situation shall not be considered to exist when a multipurpose piping system serves a one- or 2- family dwelling provided the sprinkler system is constructed of materials and joints suitable for water distribution systems as specified in ss.
SPS 384.30 (4) (e) and
384.40, respectively.
SPS 382.41(3)(c)1.1. For sewerage treatment facilities which are required to conform with ch.

SPS 382.41(3)(c)1.b.
b. In the private water main upstream of all water services serving the facility; or
SPS 382.41(3)(c)1.c.
c. In the water distribution system upstream of all water outlets and in the process piping network upstream of all points of use, if both a water distribution system and a process network is contained within the same building or structure.
