Adding a Segment Connection Point

You can add a segment connection point to a device.

Segment connection points are used to attach the end of a segment to an electrical device (except filler plugs, splices and multi insert connectors).

  1. In the tree or in the work area, select an electrical device.

    The Segment Connection Point Definition dialog box appears.

  2. In the Name box, type a name.
  3. Select a Representation, for example a surface or a point.
  4. Place a segment connection point:
    1. Select the Standard tab.
    2. Click the icon.

    Important: The X-axis indicates the direction of segment tangency. Make sure that the X-axis points away from the device to ensure the tangency.

    In the Segment Connection Point Definition dialog box, the name of the axis system is displayed in the Axis System box.
  5. Click OK to validate.
