Group Cables

Users must form all "to be sized" cables into a group:

• A single cable group can be created per rule.

• The group must consist of all the cables on the same "route" between a supply and a load.

• All these cables must have the same catalogue cable assigned to them (once cables have been grouped, you will not be able to change their catalogue cables).

• No other cables on the layout can be designated as "to be sized"

To create a cable group:

1. Select all the cables that are to form the group, right-click on any of them, and select Group Power Cables:

   

2. The Cable Group Information window is then displayed:

   

3. Enter the group name in the Sizing Group Information field. The name must be unique for the project (it cannot have been used in another rule).

4. Click OK to create the group. The group name is then displayed before the catalogue cable numbers of the grouped cables. For example:

   

Ungroup Cables

To ungroup cables, right-click on any cable in a group and select the Ungroup Power Cables from the menu that is then displayed.

Click Yes. The cables are then ungrouped.
