There are a number of methods on how to number the equipment. Some clients may have their own numbering system for all of their projects. The numbering is generally done by the mechanical department, except for the purely electrical equipment, which is numbered by the electrical group. The most popular numbering systems are the intuitive systems, as follows:

 Example: 20 PU 007; Area 20; PUmp sequence number: 007. The pump number is also given to the associated motor.

The plant process areas may be given the specific area designations:

 00: For a general site, including the main substation

 10: Crushing

 20: Conveying

 30: Milling

 40: Flotation, etc.

For the equipment, assign intuitive designations as follows:

 PU, pump; SP, sump pump; TK, tank; CR, crane; AG, agitator; VF, vent fan; RF, roof fan; LP, lighting panel; HR, heater; CV, conveyor; TR, transformer; CY, cyclone; etc.

The sequence is from 001 to 999. The sequence numbering may restart from 001 for each area.

The numbers do not have to be consecutive. The sequence number 001 may start from the basement, 101 on the first level, etc., to better describe the equipment location.

Be consistent and make sure the pumps are sequenced in pairs: 001/002, 103/104, the odd number is, for instance, on the left side approaching the motors.

Cables are generally numbered and defined by the loads and not the MCC sources. Some companies insist that cable numbers include indications of the source (the MCC bucket) and the destination (load). Standardize control cables for the common hardware such as pushbuttons by using consistent cable C suffixes, programmable logic controller (PLC) connections. For instance, the cables for the pump 40 PU 003 are labeled:

 40 PU 003 P: For the motor power cable.

 40 PU 003 C1: For the control cable to PLC equipment.

 40 PU 003 C2: For the control cable to the Push Button station.

 40 PU 003 C3: For the control cable to the field level switch or other sensor.

Make sure the numbering is consistent for all plant motors. This will allow for easier understanding of the plant cabling and purposes. For instance, establish that cable C1 for all the plant motors is always the cable from the motor starter going to PLC. If that cable is not used, that number is skipped for that particular drive. Push button station always occupies cable C2, etc. This consistent method of numbering will help you computerize the cable lists and to sort the lists to specific equipment.

The equipment numbers are needed to create load lists, which will later be expanded to create the list of schematics and cable lists. For instance by adding to the list of loads: the load names, voltage, kW rating, MCC, and bucket, a computer program can create a list of cables, select the cable sizes, and assign “From – To” destinations without any manual input.

If you add a typical schematic diagram type for each drive or feeder to the load list, the computer program will assign and fill in the cables and cable details on the drawings for each particular drive/feeder without any human input.
