How long should a fire hydrant be flushed?

What is NFPA standard for fire hose cabinet?

It depends upon whether you mean the standard that requires or allows a fire hose cabinet to be present (and their locations), or the requirements for installations, or for the manufacture of a fire hose cabinet, or the requirements for occupant training if there are fire hose cabinets. Regarding fire hose cabinet placement and training: that would be covered by the locally adopted fire code, such as NFPA 1 and NFPA 101® LIfe Safety Code®, under the "fire protection systems" required for a particular facility. The requirements for the mechanism, configuration and installation would be covered in the cross-referenced NFPA 14, "Standard for the Installation of Standpipe and Hose Systems" and maintenance would be covered in NFPA 25, "Standard for the Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems."
