Components for Electrical Routes

Components for electrical routes include:
  • Connectors

    Connectors are special part fittings that connect to both the route and equipment outside the route. Connectors generally contain mate references for equipment connections.

  • Clips

    Clips are components for electrical, piping, and flexible tubing routes that help to locate the route as desired. Clips can be used as reference locations, or dropped into the route during route creation. These components generally contain mate references for equipment connections.

  • Ribbon Cables

    Ribbon cable components include connectors, sockets and clips. These components generally contain mate references for equipment connections.

  • Electrical Conduit

    Electrical conduit is a class of routing parts that combine rigid tubing with electrical. Terminal connectors contain both electrical conduit and electrical connection points. Inline route components contain only electrical conduit route points. These components generally contain mate references for equipment connections.

  • Cables

    Cables are parts that follow the length of the route, to the end of the sketch or to an electrical connector. Unlike pipes and tubes, there is no cable “seed” part; the cable is generated within the route, with specifications extracted from a default route property or From-To List file.
