Importance of Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) in India
1. Importance of Mechanical, Electrical and
Plumbing (MEP) in India
MEP is an acronym which stands for mechanical, electrical and
plumbing engineering. All these three technical disciplines encompass
the systems that make building interiors suitable for human occupancy.
MEP installation is addressed together to avoid conflicts in equipment
locations and due to the high degree of interaction between them. One
of the common problems happens when electrical, mechanical and
plumbing systems are designed in isolation.
2. Also, working with qualifies mechanical engineering services provider
to bring a lot of benefits such as installation costs are reduced by
optimizing material requirements, achieving high performance and
code compliance and many more.
M: Mechanical Engineering
There are various types of mechanical systems used in residential,
industrial and commercial buildings. Mainly there are three types of
account used for most of the mechanical design work in multifamily
and commercial construction by the mechanical engineering services
provider in India,
● Space heating
● Air conditioning
● Mechanical ventilation
These systems interact to keep humidity and the temperature within a
range that provides health and a perfect comfort. It also ensures fresh
air to keep pollutant concentrations at low and safe levels. Another
consequence of over-engineering in the mechanical system by MEP
outsourcing is poor control of indoor humidity. As low humidity can
irritate the skin and airways and high humidity can help in the growth
of mold and bacteria.
3. E: Electrical Engineering
In high rise construction, one of the main challenges in electrical design
is defining the optimal routes. There tends to be more flexible than in
mechanical systems since electrical circuits require space and it can be
routed easily around obstacles. MEP outsourcing conduit and wiring
can be laid out while minimizing total circuit lengths and can avoid
location conflicts with plumbing installations and mechanical
installations.
P: Plumbing Engineering
Plumbing installations in India are subject to various technical
requirements. Plumbing requires laying out complex piping routes, and
with the help of MEP engineering consultant, the engineering firm can
simplify the process. Also, the Plumbing installations interact with both
electrical and mechanical systems, which emphasizes the importance of
collaborations.
