Data Management
Depending on the technology discussed, the term attribute can be treated as equivalent to a property or as a set of attributes, such as the number of elements in a file or the size of an element in the file. An attribute defines a certain value for a particular instance of a particular property or object in an object or element. It could also specify specific values for given cases of this kind and refer to specific properties of the same object, element and / or element type.
In computing, an attribute is a specification that defines a property, object, or element in a file.
In C++ programming language, attributes are equivalent to annotations in Java and are the metadata attached to an object, such as a file, file name or file type. Attributes are a structured way to add metadata to a class, method, variable and other data structures

How To
Secondary Supply – diverse cable route
This guidance covers the routing of secondary supply cables from a life safety generator to the ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch), and the final equipment with reference to:
BS 7671:2018+A2:2022, specifically Section 560: Safety Services
BS 8519:2020, with emphasis on Clause 7 (Cable Routing) and Clause 11 (Cable Selection)
The goal: clarify requirements for the diverse cable routing and maintain circuit integrity under fire conditions for systems that support life safety and fire-fighting applications, such as sprinkler pumps, fire-fighting lifts, and smoke control systems.
