Cable Design

The Cabling System application is supplied as a module within the AVEVA Outfitting suite and allows you to create and route cables, and if required enclose the routed cables within cable trays.

The application can be divided broadly into three parts, namely, Cableways, Cables, and Cable Tray Material. The design process is as follows:

• Cableways are created early in the 3D modelling process to reserve space in the model for the cables and cable trays.

• Cables are selected from the catalogue, optionally connected to equipment, before being joined and routed along a cableway.

• Cable tray material is added to the cableways either automatically or manually. There is also an option to perform preliminary dressing of a cableway.
