BS EN 81346-1:2009 Industrial systems, installations and equipment and industrial product - Structuring principles and reference designations - Basic rules
This part of IEC 81346, published jointly by IEC and ISO, establishes general principles for
the structuring of systems including structuring of the information about systems.
Based on these principles, rules and guidance are given for the formulation of unambiguous
reference designations for objects in any system.
The reference designation identifies objects for the purpose of creation and retrieval of information about an object, and where realized about its corresponding component.
A reference designation labelled at a component is the key to find information about that object among different kinds of documents.
The principles are general and are applicable to all technical areas (for example mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, construction engineering, process engineering). They can be used for systems based on different technologies or for systems combining several technologies.
