To Extend Multi Conductors

Note:

This procedure applies to Electric CE.

When you have a set of multi conductors, you can extend some and continue them in a different direction.

  1. Display the Electric Explorer.
  2. From the profile list at the top of the Electric Explorer, select the profile to use, for example Underground.

    Profiles are created in Infrastructure Administrator . Profiles control the containers that are visible in the Electric Explorer. For more information, see Create Electric Explorer Profiles.

  3. In the Conductor container, click More Extend Conductors.
  4. Select the conductors to extend. Press Enter.
  5. If the conductors end on a structure, you must specify the distribution layout option to use. Specify one of the following distribution layout styles:
    • Symmetric—Conductor lines are evenly distributed on either side of the axis.
    • Right—The first conductor is placed on the axis line. Other conductors are placed on the right side of the axis. The right side is determined based on the direction in which you digitized the axis.
    • Left—The first conductor is placed on the axis line. Other conductors are placed on the left side of the axis. The left side is determined based on the direction in which you digitized the axis.
  6. Specify the start point and end point of the axis of the extension. Press Enter.

    The axis cannot be parallel and should not start directly at the end point of any of the selected conductors. Extended conductors are created on the newly defined axis and merged with the existing one. The axis of the extension must intersect with the previously selected conductors to extend.

  7. Press ESC to complete the operation.
