HAZARDS AROUND

While working live in the energized grid, presence of voltage around the workers requires special attention. However, live-line (live working) techniques are widely applied for decades, several accidents in the past prove that the level of safety must be improved to minimize the number and seriousness of injuries in the future.
In the high voltage grid, bare-hand method is a common technique for safe live work. In the surroundings of any energized equipment,...

Building a Breath of Fresh Air: BAS and Indoor Air Quality

Modern buildings prioritize energy efficiency and aesthetics, but sometimes at the expense of indoor air quality (IAQ). Poor IAQ can lead to respiratory problems, allergies, and decreased occupant comfort and productivity. Fortunately, Building Automation Systems (BAS) offer a powerful solution, enabling intelligent control and monitoring of building systems to maintain healthy IAQ levels. This article explores how BAS contribute to improved IAQ, examining the benefits, technical considerations, and potential limitations of this approach.

Breathing Easy: Benefits of BAS for Improved IAQ

Integrating BAS with air quality sensors and ventilation systems offers numerous benefits:

Real-Time Monitoring: BAS can be integrated with various air quality sensors like carbon dioxide (CO2) sensors, volatile organic compound (VOC) sensors, and particulate matter (PM) sensors. These sensors provide real-time data on indoor air quality parameters, allowing for immediate response to fluctuations and maintaining healthy IAQ levels.

Demand-Controlled Ventilation (DCV): BAS...
