For the theory of fiber bundles to be well-behaved one typically needs to restrict to those that have a local trivialization not just over any open cover but over a numerable open cover – these are the numerable bundles. Since this condition is automatic if the base space is paracompact the condition is often not made explicit.
(numerable fiber bundle)
A fiber bundle over a topological space is called numerable if it admits a local trivialization over a numerable open cover.
Various results for classifying spaces that classify arbitrary fiber bundles over paracompact topological spaces generalizes (only) to a classification of numerable bundles over general topological spaces.
The conclusion that the bundle projection of a topological fiber bundle is a Hurewicz fibration follows generally only for numberable bundles (by this Prop.)
