Anyone have a one line diagram of a typical UK or EU hospital?

How are the emergency branches divided per code? How many ATSs? What is typical?

Is this a homework question?

Nope, genuinely would like to know. Say I'm designing a hospital from scratch to modern code.

No break, or just Stand by?

Ok, I'm learning all ready. What is the difference? The building never looses power vs just enough for what code requires be backed up?

I presume since you haven't put a location and are referring to code and flashlights you're in the US?

Seems an odd request for just inquest

No Break, exactly what it says no break in the supply
Stand By, Loss of power, everything dead until Genny takes over.

Knowledge is what frees, saves lives and progresses humanity. I genuinely want to know.

Like an uninterruptible power supply with a battery? What loads get that or are required to?

The reason I ask, is this is a forum of mostly UK electricians. So will not be able vise on US code.
