Are there any guidelines or standards for writing device tag numbers? Could any expert give some guidance? Thank you
There are specifications and standards for writing device tag numbers. The commonly used domestic and international standards are primarily based on the following specifications: 1. Domestic standards: – GB/T 5094 \"Structural principles and codes for industrial systems, installations, equipment, and industrial products\" – GB/T 20002 series of standards, which cover the rules for labeling equipment and pipelines in process industries. 2. Internationally recognized standards: – ISO 10628 \"General rules for process diagrams\" – ANSI/ISA–5.1 \"Instrument symbols and identification\" (widely used in the chemical and petrochemical industries) – KKS coding system: \"Power plant identification system\" (widely used in the power industry). Generally speaking, the standard to be used should be determined in accordance with the practices of the relevant industry or as agreed upon in a particular project. For example: - In the petrochemical industry, ANSI/ISA standards are often referenced ; - KKS coding system is generally used in power plants and the electricity sector ; - For engineering projects commonly used in China, GB standards are the primary ones. If you are working in a specific industry or on a particular engineering project, it is possible to define the relevant standard requirements more precisely; it is recommended to draft them based on industry practices as well as the relevant design manuals provided by design firms or companies. .
