About Details, Callouts, and Annotations

Details include switch diagrams, cross sectional views of segments and vaults, and any block drawing you want to insert in your design.

You can edit vault details to assign transformers to mount points and conductors to duct points. You can edit trench details to assign conductors to ducts.

Text callouts with or without leader lines provide explanations about selected features. Callout rules update callouts dynamically if the associated feature changes. To configure callouts, see To Configure a Callout.

You can insert annotation elements using the multileader tool (mleader) or multiline text tool (mtext). For more information on these tools, see the AutoCAD User's Guide.

Note: Segments are the structural elements of overhead and underground lines and they function as containers for the conductors. Segments do not result in any additions to the material list.
