Like all building systems objects, electrical objects have connectors that enable them to connect intelligently with each other, and transfer information along connected runs. As you draw electrical systems, you make these intelligent connections using 2 types of AutoCAD MEP 2022 toolset snaps:
- Electrical Snaps. Used to make connections when adding wires to devices and panels.
- Wire Ways Snaps. Used to make connections to cable tray, conduit, and electrical MvPart equipment.
Like all AutoCAD MEP 2022 toolset snaps, electrical snaps and wire ways snaps have 2 subtypes:
- End Connector Snaps. Used to connect an object to an endpoint on another object.
- Curve Connector Snaps. Use these snaps to connect an object anywhere along the centerline of another object.
