length_m: 12
applies_to: "Cables from BMS panel to equipment within the same plant room (e.g., chiller plant @ 2F: BMS-PNL-CHWPLANT-2F → CH/CHWP/CDWP/headers; boiler @ LG: BMS-PNL-BOILER-LG → SB-1/2; cooling-tower @ RD: BMS-PNL-CT-RD → CT-1..3 within roofdeck plant zone)"
basis: |
Plant-room equipment is typically within 5–15 m straight-line of its dedicated BMS field
panel. Add ~2 m vertical for floor-mounted panel to ceiling tray, ~3 m horizontal to
equipment, ~2 m drop to terminations, ~3 m allowance for cornering and slack at termination.
~12 m matches the median of Philippine hotel-BMS prior-project benchmarks for chiller-plant
and boiler-room cabling where the panel is sited at the room's wall and equipment is
arranged in two rows along the room's length.

breakdown:

inter_floor_riser:
length_m: 45
applies_to: "Vertical cables routed via shaft/riser between floors (~3.5 m × number of floors traversed plus 8 m horizontal allowance per panel landing). Used when cables originate at one floor's panel and terminate at equipment on another floor."
basis: |
Hotel-floor-to-floor separation in this project is ~3.5 m (typical cast-in-place hotel
tower). A cable that originates at a panel on one floor and terminates at equipment on
another typically traverses: ~3 m horizontal at panel end → vertical riser × N floors →
~3 m horizontal at equipment end → ~2 m drop to terminations → ~5 m cornering/slack
allowance. For a typical inter-floor run spanning 2–4 floors, this works out to 35–55 m.
45 m is taken as the central context value.

guestroom_corridor:
length_m: 35
applies_to: "Field cables routed through guestroom corridors and BOH service corridors on a single floor (toilet exhaust fans on a guestroom floor, corridor temperature sensors, BOH ventilation field devices)"
basis: |
A typical guestroom-floor corridor is 30–50 m long. A BMS panel located mid-corridor or
at a service core sees ~10–25 m to the farthest field device on that floor + ~5 m
vertical (panel-to-tray-to-device drop) + ~5 m termination & cornering allowance.
35 m is the median for the BOH ventilation-fan cabling pattern.

casino_floor_field:
length_m: 28
applies_to: "Field cables on the casino floor (2F casino lobby zone) — typically shorter than guestroom corridors because the casino-MVAC equipment serving the casino is in adjacent plant space"
basis: |
Casino MVAC zone (PPCAS-14 panel area + casino DOAS) is a compact mechanical-room
adjacent to the casino floor. BMS-PNL-CASINO-2F sees DOAS, smoke sanitizer, and
AHU-2M.1/2M.2 within ~15–25 m + ~3 m vertical + ~5 m allowance. 28 m is the central
value applied where the precise device location is not measurable from the EE Plan.

bms_panel_power_feed:
length_m: 18
applies_to: "240V single-phase power feeder from a nearby panelboard or local distribution point to the BMS field panel; not a BMS signal cable but consumed by A3 schedule for total cable count"
basis: |
BMS field panels typically draw <100 W; their 240V supply is taken from the nearest
panelboard (often on the same floor, often in the same electrical room). Typical
run includes: ~3 m horizontal at panelboard end → ~6 m horizontal to BMS panel
area → ~3 m vertical drop → ~6 m cornering, slack, and termination allowance.
18 m balances the boiler-room (closer, ~12 m) and casino/AHU-zone (further, ~22 m) cases.
