How should the checklist be used?
Use it at intake and attach it to the drawing register. Any unchecked input becomes an open item with an owner rather than an invented dimension.
| Area | Evidence | Owner |
|---|---|---|
| Equipment | Vendor outline | Supplier or engineer |
| Interfaces | Boundary register | Project team |
| Performance | Approved calculation | Qualified reviewer |
| Issue | Drawing standard | Document control |
What is outside the tool?
It does not calculate ventilation, predict noise, certify a structure or approve construction. Those decisions require qualified project review.
Common questions
What else should the bid team know?
Does a drawing pack certify acoustic or thermal performance?
No. Acoustic predictions, ventilation performance and certification require qualified review against the project inputs and applicable requirements.
Can enclosure dimensions be guessed from the genset name?
No. Use the approved vendor outline, service clearances and project constraints. Missing dimensions remain open.
Who approves the engineering design?
The responsible registered engineer or qualified project reviewer approves engineering content and performs sign-off.
