Paying into DC Pension when drawing DB Pension

Can you pay more than 4k into a DC pension via salary sacrifice whilst drawing a DB Pension?
Or are you limited to paying in 4k max only if you are drawing pension from a DC type pension?

Appreciate some clarification from you.
Thanks

    WHAT DOES NOT TRIGGER THE MONEY PURCHASE ANNUAL ALLOWANCE?


    The following events do not trigger the MPAA:
    • receipt of a pension commencement lump sum,
    • an individual commences flexi-access drawdown, either by a new designation or through conversion of a capped drawdown
    contract, and does not receive any income,
    • an individual holds a capped drawdown contract that was set up before 6th April 2015, and does not receive income above the
    maximum income limit for the contract after 5th April 2015,
    receipt of payment from a standard lifetime annuity or scheme pension,
    • receipt of a small lump sum or trivial commutation lump sum,
    • receipt of income from a dependant’s drawdown contract.
