Energy Management And Building Controls
Building management systems (BMS) are systems that control and monitor the mechanical, electrical and lighting systems in buildings. The aim of a BMS is to make sure that these systems work together efficiently and safely, and to help reduce the running costs of a building.
A BMS typically includes:
– A control system which monitors and controls the building’s systems
– A data logging system which records information about the building’s energy use
– An alarm system which alerts the occupants or operators of the building to potential problems
– A graphical user interface (GUI) which allows the operator to view information about the building’s systems and to control them remotely.
