AUDCLEARANCE	Checks clearance between wires and/or structures to determine if NESC clearance standards are met. Check the clearance between two wires or between a wire and any object, such as a Utility Design device or structure or a non-Utility Design object such as a building. Respond to the prompts to select the wires and specify parameters such as wind direction, required horizontal and vertical clearances, and so forth. A clearance envelope is displayed in the drawing and clearance violation status is indicated on the command line.

AUDCONNECTIONHIGHLIGHT	Highlight all the conductors and devices that are electrically connected to the selected device. This enables you to detect possible disconnections in the circuit. For more information about connection, see About Connection.
AUDCONNECTTOMODEL	Displays the Connect to Industry Model dialog box where you can enter credentials to connect to an external data source. For more information, see To Connect to a Source Industry Model .
AUDCONVERTTOMODEL	Converts GIS and drawing data to intelligent design data. For more information, see To Convert CAD and GIS Data to Design Features.

AUDDETAILINSERT	Inserts a pre-configured dwg block that represents a detailed view of a feature in the design. You can also insert a vanilla dwg by browsing to a dwg file as a detail. There are three kinds of details: General detail, vault detail, and trench detail. You can edit the active points in vault and trench details.
AUDDISCONNECTFROMMODEL	Disconnects the design drawing from the current Connect to Extract connection made in the Connect to Industry Model dialog box.

You must be connected to an external industry model data source. For more information, see To Extract and Merge Data.
AUDEXTRACTTOMODELCONFIG	Defines the mappings between feature classes in the source industry model and feature classes in the current industry model in the design drawing. You can add filter expressions and change the coordinate system for the source. You can also save mappings and load previously defined mappings. For more information, see To Configure Mapping.

AUDEXTRACTTOMODELCONFIGREMOVE	Removes the current extracted configuration from the current design drawing.
AUDEXTRACTTOMODELCONFIGSAVE	Saves the current extracted configuration from the current design drawing to an external file.
AUDFEATUREINFO	Displays the Feature Info palette of the Dashboard.
AUDGUYANALYSIS	Performs guying analysis.
AUDGUYINSERT	Adds a guy. Optional command line arguments let you select a model name and define a status value (New, Existing, Removal). As you draw, if the start and/or end point are snapped to a structure (such as a pole or anchor) a topological connection is made. If you snap only one point to a structure, an anchor is added to the unsnapped end of the newly created guy. For more information, see About Design Layout.
AUDINDUSTRYMODELADD	Converts a standard AutoCAD drawing into an intelligent design drawing by adding an industry model. Note that you must select a template that contains an industry model.
AUDINDUSTRYMODELCONFIG	Displays the Industry Model Configuration dialog box and enables you to configure: Attribute definitions Model features Stylization
AUDLINEFEATURE	Adds a conductor or segment to the drawing.  The polyline represents the geometry of one or more ducts and conductors within a trench. The command supports a nested syntax which allows you to create a nested collection of ducts and conductors (for example ducts that contain conductors as well as other ducts). If you specify Overhead Run for the ModelName attribute of the segment, pole features are created along with the line as one operation. If you define an underground segment, no poles are inserted. The MaxSpan parameter of AUDLINEFEATURE determines the maximum span between two poles when a new segment is created. If you specify an overhead segment when you draw a new segment, a pole is added at every point you click. If the gap between any new poles exceeds MaxSpan, poles are evenly inserted to divide the span as necessary so MaxSpan is not exceeded. For more information, see About Design Layout.
AUDLOCATIONHIGHLIGHT	Highlights all the features associated with a particular work location. See also: AUDLOCATIONSET, AUDNOLOCATIONHIGHLIGHT.
AUDLOCATIONRENAME	Renames a work location.
AUDLOCATIONSET	Creates a work location and adds selected features to it. See Also: AUDNOLOCATIONHIGHLIGHT, AUDLOCATIONHIGHLIGHT.
AUDMATERIAL	Displays the Material Editor palette of the Dashboard.

AUDMATERIALRESET	Clears the material list and runs all material rules against the design.
AUDMERGE	Merges two selected segments and any conductors and ducts within the segment. The merge operation requires the following conditions be met: The segments must be contiguous. (The start or end point of one segment must coincide with the start or end point of the other segment.) The segments must be of the same model. All features contained (directly or nested) by the first segment must correspond uniquely (with respect to its model) to a feature contained by the second segment.
AUDMERGETOMODELVALIDATE	Displays the Merge Changes palette to review and merge new, existing, modified, and removed features back into the source. The Merge Changes palette provides information on the features to be merged. You can specify features to merge and features to skip. Features marked with Removal status are deleted from the source when they are merged. For more information, see To Merge and Validate Changes.
AUDNOLOCATIONHIGHLIGHT	Highlights all features that are not associated with any work location. See also: AUDLOCATIONHIGHLIGHT.
'AUDOFFSETPOINT	From within the AUDPOINTFEATURE command, use 'AUDOFFSETPOINT to offset point features (devices and structures) from lines and other points. For more information, see To Create Offset Points. This command uses the alias 'offsetpt.
AUDOPTIONS	Configures AutoCAD Utility Design options. For more information, see To Specify Application Options.
AUDPOINTFEATURE	Adds an electrical device or point structure such as a pole or vault to the drawing. The command supports the creation of nested features such as a pole containing a light or a vault containing a transformer. For more information, see About Design Layout.

AUDPROJECTEXPLORER	Displays the Project Explorer.
AUDPULLINGTENSIONCALCULATE	Performs pulling tension analysis.
_AUDPURGE	Synchronize 2D and 3D drawing block definitions with block directory files so most current blocks are available. To synchronize an individual block, enter _AUDPURGE blockname. To synchronize all blocks used in the drawing, enter _AUDPURGE. _AUDPURGE also clears the temporary style preview folder and improves performance.
AUDQUICKINFO	Displays information about the selected feature, what it contains and is contained by, and what it is connected to. If the model is specified, that is also shown.
AUDREMOVEFROMPOLE	Deletes structures and devices from the selected pole. Structures and devices contained by a pole are not visible in the canvas so you cannot select and delete them or use the ERASE command. To use the AUDREMOVEFROMPOLE command, select an existing pole. The command displays a list of the structures and devices contained by the pole. Specify the contained features to delete from the pole.
AUDREMOVEFROMSEGMENT	Deletes ducts and conductors from the selected segment. Ducts and conductors contained by a segment are not visible in the canvas so you cannot select and delete them or use the ERASE command. To use the AUDREMOVEFROMSEGMENT command, select an existing segment. The command displays a list of the ducts and conductors that pass through the selected segment. Specify the ducts and conductors to delete from the segment. Note that you can double-click on a conductor or duct in the list to highlight all the segments that the duct or conductor passes through. For more information, see About Design Layout.
