FIFTHTEXAS Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Hi Does anyone know if there is a document of industry standards of producing M&E drawings. I have worked for a few companies and was told that electrical drawings are 1:100 scale and Mechanical 1:50 scale. However i am now with a company who say both Mech and Elec drawings should be 1:50. I was always told to try use A1 drawings where possible. I just dont see the point of having an Electrical drawing on A0 sheet with 12 sockets and a Dist board or have containment on A0 when you can see perfectly well on A1 I know it depends on project some might have lots of fittings and of course you will then need to use 1:50. But i am talking about an average residential project. Can anyone advise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 There should be a BS British Standard for drafting may be old but its recommendations should still be applicable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
