We recommend this and it should be used in dRofus. You can create a basic classification so that you can make it possible to separate between
System Hierarchy
In BIM and in real life, 'System Components' can have many systems, but they are also components cross domain and can be connected to other systems.
An air handling unit is normally a system component as it will be the owner of systems as:
Supply air
Return air
Air supply
Exhaust
However, the air handling unit can also be a component in an electrical system as it needs power supply from a electrical circuit. This graph of connections can be viewed hierarchically in the Systems module.
In the image below we are looking at the electrical domain and can see that the Air handling unit is connected to a Main power panel through a sub panel. By looking at the properties to the right we can also see that the Air handling unit is the system component for Supply air, Return Air, Exhaust air, and fresh supply air.

System numbering
System running number

The System serial number is '01'. Identifying that this is the first System connected to the System Component.

Items Types Serial Number
A Type classification will provide a direct and unique reference to the designed object including the designed performance. The designed Type will also match a corresponding Product. E.g. the 200 electrical outlets could be solved be white double outlets. They could be documented one place - on the Type, regardless of what electrical System they are attached to.
Components Serial Number
When an Occurrence of an Item is created, will it automatic get a serial number after the Item classification. Together, the Item classification and the serial number is absolutely unique in the database.
Since the number/code is unique, we can use this as an address in the central processing System, flow balancing and documentation.
