Internet of things ( IoT ) the new age of technology

The internet of things, or IoT, is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers ( UIDs ) and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction IoT is influencing our lifestyle, from the way we react to the way we behave. From air conditioners that you can control them with your smartphone, also you control your smart cars by providing them the shortest route to take, or your smartwatch can track your daily activities. Really IoT is a giant network with connected devices, these devices gather and share data about how they are used, and the environment in which they are operated. It’s all done using sensors, these sensors are embedded in every physical device. It can be your mobile, phone, electrical appliances, bar code sensors, traffic lights and almost everything that you come across in day-to-day life. These sensors co...

Common mistakes by MEP team to be avoided in projects

Hello everybody, today I will talk about some common mistakes done by some electrical designers and execution teams while installing the electrical conduits (embedded in the slab or exposed) in projects.    1- the First mistake is: more wires or cables are pulled inside a conduit which is exceeding the accepted fill ratio. As per NEC table 1 in photo no.1, the maximum allowable fill ratio for more than 2 cables inside a conduit is 40%, but sometimes a designer or installer or both of them forget or doesn’t take care about this point, so we will have a lot of wires or cables are pulled inside a conduit and take a space inside the conduit more than the allowable fill ratio. 2- the Second mistake is: Junction boxes are not provided in the routing of electrical exposed EMT conduits, while we have more than four 90-degree bends, because this affecting on cable or wire-pulling inside the conduit. Also, later for any maintenance purpose, it will be very difficult to pull ne...
