Naming Conventions

Energy AnalytiX in auto-configuring energy related entities will utilize a certain naming convention schema which will facilitate easy filtering on energy related AssetWorX properties along with the utilization of advanced array functions in Hyper Historian.

For energy meters the related naming convention for asset equipment properties related to energy meters is as follows:

In General...

Equipment property naming convention is hard-coded and not localizable.
Equipment property display name is localizable.

Asset Equipment Property Naming

The naming conventions for energy assets are as follows:

Ea prefix will be added to all exposed equipment properties on behalf of Energy AnalytiX.

Sample Energy Asset Configuration

Sample Naming Convention for Temperature Based Calculations

They are optional and if defined Energy AnalytiX will create equipment properties for:

Temperature source
Base temperature
Heating degree days
Cooling degree days

Note: For heating and cooling degree days calculations, we will follow the approach as outlined athttps://www.degreedays.net/introduction.

Sample Naming Convention for Temperature

Temperature: Ea + Temperature

Sample Naming Convention for Base Temperature

Base Temperature: Ea + Base + Temperature

Sample Naming Convention for Heating Degree Days

Heating Degree Days: Ea + HDD

Sample Naming Convention for Cooling Degree Days

Cooling Degree Days: Ea + CDD

Sample Naming Convention for Cost Based Calculations

They are optional and, if defined, Energy AnalytiX will create equipment properties for:

Raw tag for storing budgeted cost value
Budgeted Cost calculation
Energy Cost (of energy consumption)

Sample Naming Convention for Budgeted Cost Raw Tag

Budgeted Cost Raw Tag: Ea+ BCH + Raw + meter type name (no spaces)

Sample Naming Convention for Budgeted Cost Calculation

Budgeted Cost Calculation: Ea+ BCH + Actual + meter type name (no spaces)

Sample Naming Convention for Energy Cost Calculation

Energy Cost Calculation: Ea+ A + Cost + meter type name (no spaces)

Sample Naming Convention for Energy Calculations

They are optional and, if defined, Energy AnalytiX will create equipment properties for each type of energy calculation defined.

Sample Naming Convention for Energy Calculations (Standard)

Energy Standard Calculation: Ea+ A + Calculation Name (no spaces) + meter type name (no spaces)

Sample Naming Convention for Energy Calculations (Derived)

Energy Derived Calculation: Ea+ A + Calculation Name (no spaces) + meter type name (no spaces)

Sample Naming Convention for Carbon Calculations

They are optional and, if defined, Energy AnalytiX will create equipment properties for each type of energy calculation defined.

Sample Naming Convention for Carbon Calculations

Energy Carbon Calculation: Ea+ A + Calculation Name (no spaces) + meter type name (no spaces)
