Instrument Index

None known here. Each operation has its own standards.

if I understand you, I usually make an excel sheet comprised of the slot,address, voltage, sensor oh yah I also put the ID or label

Have'nt heard of any standards, just basics, when I was working as junior engineer Instrument index was always my activity, and whatever shown there will depend on the users, I will start the basics, Tags, IO Type, System, Loop Number, etc, If JB loading is already done by a designer, he will add JB on the index and assign JB names on the tags, if location plan is already done by the designer then that designer will add Location plan in the Index, it all depends on the users.

In the industry I work in, where we build process skids with loads of instrumentation, we have developed a semi-standard form that we fill out for our own use. But, every customer that we build for will always want something presented on their Instrument Index that we don't have on ours, and in a different listing order. So, basically, as others have said, no. Every company has its own way of preparing them. Some very unique.

For Preparing Instrument Index and I/O list,

we have to know standards for the instruments what we are using not for Instrument Index and I/O list.where ever instrument index contains Tag no's, service, p&id,Range's,connection etc. and for I/O the same tag and signal for the instruments.
