Again, we’re talking about the original save/insert circuit capabilities that have been in AutoCAD Electrical for a long time…ġst method: Saving a Circuit using AutoCAD WBLOCK command But we want to be able to quickly re-use this circuit and other circuits like this so we don’t have to create each future instance “from scratch”.

We’ve built it up using AutoCAD Electrical, inserting wires and components. And there are two versions that ultimately do the same thing, that is, allow you to save partial or complete circuits and then, at any time, pop in copies of them for re-use.įor example, on the circled part of the circuit shown above… let’s say we have designed a basic 3-phase motor control circuit with isolated control transformer and control circuit. This is the original circuit toolset that’s been around for a very long time. Save Circuit / Insert Circuit from Icon Menu Note: this posting is a summary of what Nathan covered in the first part of his presentation, prior to introduction of the Circuit Builder tool. In the Select Symbol/Objects dialog box, Attribute template section: Browse to the Library path for example C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Acade \Libs\jic125.Browse to the existing block to select the symbol to create or edit.Click Schematic tab Other Tools panel Symbol Builder drop-down Symbol Builder.Save partial or complete schematic circuits to the AutoCAD Electrical icon menu for pick and placement at any time into the current design.Īutodesk’s Nathan Eliason hosted a webcast today (February 16, 2011) that was an introduction to the Circuit Builder tool built into AutoCAD Electrical. I helped put the demo together and was responsible for real-time Q & A support while Nathan was “on stage”. In the Attribute template section: Choose Symbol: Horizontal Parent for example.
