[Tagging] Clarification of fire_hydrant:diameter

[Marc Gemis]

Perhaps it's my fault, I just found

DN = Diameter Nominal. The term Diameter Nominal refers to the
internaldiameter of a pipe. Together with the nominal pressure rating
and the materials class, all dimensions of a piping line, e. g. flange
dimensions, are defined by indicating the nominal diameter. Steel is
often not specified, but assumed as material.

So perhaps I should have translated binnendiameter to "internaldiameter" ?
