Design and Construction of Mechanical and Electrical Systems

The M&E (Mechanical and Electrical) system or electromechanical system is an additional part to complete a house. This system is divided into two main parts: mechanical and electrical.

Mechanical part

The mechanical part of the project mainly focuses on the air conditioning and ventilation category (commonly known as HVAC).

Other categories such as: Fire alarm and Fighting, Plumbing and Sanitary (P&S), LPG and compressed air supply, etc.

Electrical part

Electrical-related categories include: power distribution and supply, lighting system, control system, extra low voltage (ELV).

When should electromechanical design be done?

The design and construction of the electromechanical system is done in parallel with the rough construction and completion of the project. Therefore, the investor must ensure that he has the electromechanical design drawings for the project before proceeding with the next steps.

The electromechanical system is divided into mechanical and electrical systems.

In particular, for the electrical system, I-ON provides the following design consulting services:

– Design of power systems in buildings

– Indoor and outdoor lighting design solutions

– Design of intelligent control systems for buildings.

– Design of CCTV systems and security systems, broadcasting and warning systems.

– Design of fire detection and alarm systems.

– Design of building management systems, building access management.

– Design and installation of UPS systems.

– Design of power lines and transformer stations, high, medium and low voltage switching equipment.

– Design and installation of generator systems and power station systems.

– Lightning protection systems.

For mechanical engineering, there are the following design consulting services:

– Design of ventilation systems, air conditioning systems.

– Heat recovery system design

– Condensate system design, hot and cold water pump system

– Energy management system design

– Fire protection and alarm system design.

– Compressed air system design.

– Sanitary equipment design, including wastewater and water supply and drainage systems.
