What Can Schematics Be Generated For? All loads All converting equipment All disconnect equipment Circuits Buses Generators Battery banks Instruments

Create All Schematic Typicals Start with the typical that is the busiest In AutoCad create a SPEL text layer Populate the drawing with the SPEL &ItemType.Property tags, no need to worry about which Block they will be assigned to, just yet. Hint: Properties exposed under the Item Type shown in a Table View are generally available for mapping under that Item Type. Note: The graphics engine in SPEL does not support Attributed blocks (Example: Borders with embedded properties).

Create All Schematic Typicals Create Graphic as blocks for the individual item type as a block without the border. Save border separately. When saving border, include all of the Notes and Legend too. Register the Graphic in Reference Data Explorer/Typical Blocks. Use Motor as the Block Type.

Create All Schematic Typicals Border Instructions Run SmartSketch or Catalog Manger, open your border and select all. From Side Menu bar, near bottom, select Save as Symbol. Open SPEL/File/Open/Template – Choose document paper size. Hint: Use Architectural Paper Sizes. SPEL/Edit/Insert/Symbol. Zoom in on Bottom-Left of Page. Drag Border(symbol) and align with 0.0,0.0 of page. When aligned hit Return. Border will be locked together with paper size for Schematics.

Create All Schematic Typicals Under Reference Data Explorer/Typical Schematic – Create Typical Schematic by adding blocks and associating with Border/Paper Size Template. Name and Save Typical Schematic.

Generating Schematic Pick a Motor, make sure all of the Properties you expect to populate on the schematic have data. This includes Item Types (Circuit, Control Station, Cable, Starter, etc……). Assign the Typical Schematic to your chosen Motor. Select Motor – Right Click – Apply Options – Typical Schematic – Enable Typical Schematic – Choose. Right Click Motor - Generate Schematic. Check the Schematic for Labels that didn’t show up.

Generating Schematic Create additional blocks for the Items that are missing from the schematic. Remember to save the blocks from the original Schematic to preserve their location relative to 0.0,0.0. Hint: Circuit, may have the linkages you need. SPEL/Save As (AutoCad).

THE THE THE THAT’S ALL FOLKS THE END Wherever motors are used, they must be controlled. This is often accomplished using a motor starter made up of a contactor and an overload relay. The contactor’s contacts are closed to start the motor and opened to stop the motor. This is accomplished electromechanically using start and stop push buttons or other pilot devices.
