District Heating and Cooling - Leak Detection Systems

DHC Geonet users,

I am trying to understand how to model Leak Detection systems within a Utility Network. This monitoring system seems to be commonly used in District Heating and Cooling systems. What I have learned so far is that a Leak Detection system is comprised of the following components:

-Leak Detection Panel

-Leak Detection Test Point

-Leak Detection Wire

-Leak Detection Withdrawal Point

A customer was kind enough to share the following drawing to help explain this system.

Here are my initial questions:

1) Is this a complete inventory of the components which comprise a leak detection system.

2) Is the leak detection wire always embedded in the insulation of the main?

3) If the wire is embedded in the pipe insulation, could it be stored as an attribute of the pipe versus being a separate feature?

Thanks
