A "Siamese Connection" is a specific type of fire department connection (FDC) used in fire protection systems. It is named "Siamese" because of its resemblance to the letter "Y" in shape, with two inlets merging into a single outlet, much like the flow of water through a Y-shaped hose connector.

The Siamese connection is an essential component of a building's fire protection system, particularly in high-rise buildings or large structures. Its main purpose is to provide an additional water supply inlet for firefighters to connect their hoses to the building's fire sprinkler or standpipe system.

During a fire emergency, firefighters can connect their hoses to the Siamese connection, allowing them to supply water directly into the building's fire protection system. This ensures a reliable water supply for fire suppression, enabling the sprinklers to activate and control or extinguish the fire.

Siamese connections are usually located on the exterior of the building, often near the main entrance or in a designated area that is easily accessible to the fire department. They are typically marked with appropriate signage, such as "Siamese Connection" or "Fire Department Connection."

Having Siamese connections is crucial, especially in tall buildings where the reach of fire department hoses may be limited. They provide an additional water source that can supplement the building's water supply and aid in more effective firefighting operations.

Siamese connections are commonly found in commercial buildings, hospitals, hotels, and other large structures where fire protection is a priority. Their design allows firefighters to rapidly establish a connection to the building's fire protection system, enhancing their ability to respond to fire emergencies quickly and efficiently.
