Answer 1

Answer 1) Building automation system:-
There is various electronic equipment present in the building. To manage this equipment and optimize its energy spent. we need a system of microprocessors integrated with wired or wireless controllers. We refer to this system as a building automation system(BAS).
BAS provides access and control to the electronic equipment installed in the building. And also helps in monitoring the performance of equipment. BAS enables users to create a proper interface to analyze their energy systems, schedule the timing of its operation, and to resolve any issues in the systems if arises.

Answer 2) Importance of considering BAS for buildings:-
BAS helps in regulating the building's energy consumption to a minimum possible level and it helps in enhancing the building security against the dangers of high rated electronic equipment installed in the building.

Answer 3) Effect of BAS on energy efficiency;-
BAS provides proper regulation in the energy consumption of buildings. It helps in providing energy that is exactly needed. BAS provides effective control and monitoring of various ventilating, cooling, and lightening equipment. which enhances the overall energy efficiency of the building.

Answer 4) Main components of BAS:-
The following are the main components of BAS;
a) controllers:- Controllers gather data from the system sensors and helps in responding according to the data acquired. It is the main component of BAS.
b). output devices:- It constitutes relays and circuit breakers that help in performing various actions and commands given by the controller.
c) communication protocols:- It refers to the language used by the hardware of BAS so that various components can communicate with one another.
d) User interface:- It helps in interacting with BAS and provides a platform to monitor and control the equipment installed in the building remotely. a user interface can be web-based and accessible through laptops and mobile phones.
e) Sensors:- Sensors are the devices that gather data from the building and send it to the controller. Data includes the temperature of certain rooms, humidity levels, Room occupancy, etc.
