Wire numbers are blocks with attributes inserted on a line wire entity. There are four types of wire numbers: Normal, Fixed, Extra, and Signal. The AutoCAD Electrical toolset application assigns each wire number type to its own layer. You can assign different colors to these layers.

AutoCAD Electrical toolset processes wire line entities into wire networks, and inserts or updates wire numbers associated with them.
