elecworks – Wire Connection Order

By Miles Nicholson

Whilst elecworks automatically calculates the shortest possible routing based on segregation and trunking fill when combined with PTC Creo (elecworks™ for PTC Creo routing module required), the user can predetermine the connection order for the purposes of wire from-to lists.

A schematic is a representation of a series of connections but the IEC “T” style connection does not advise how to physically define the wire connection order.

You can explicitly define the wire connection sequence of any wire networks consisting of three or more interconnected devices. You can control how elecworks™ analyzes the circuits and how from/to connection information is output to various reports.
