Cable, trunk and cable trunking
The cable trunk was subject to various restrictions in version 7.3. Its flexibility was limited and only a help for the final drawing of electrical cables. With version 8, the situation changes radically. Trunking and cables have been converted to the basic functionality of polylines and have much more flexibility and intelligence. This change in structure will greatly accelerate and simplify the design of electrical installations. The trunk supports the search for the optimal route and thus becomes a real planning tool.
Attention:
All connection functions require Smart snap.

- Connect objects to the trunking system
- Integrate distributor afterwards into a system
- Forced route by opening the loop
- Move distributor afterwards

You can connect an electrical component to a trunking system only in the case when a distributor including an existing circuit is available. The visual connection of the trunk to the distributor is not a requirement; this can also be done at a later stage. The following examples explain both variants. |
