Comprehensive Terminal Management

Increase design accuracy and reduce the complexity of
working with terminals in a design.
Graphical Terminal Strip Generator
Slash design time by automatically generating graphi-
cal terminal strip layouts based on schematic design
information for use in panel layout drawings or termi-
nal plans. You can choose to generate these terminal
strips in a graphical or table format. AutoCAD Electri-
cal automatically populates terminal strip layouts
with the wiring information for each side of the strip
as defined in the Terminal Strip Editor.
Terminal Jumpers
Easily view, create, and edit jumpers within the
Terminal Strip Editor.Reduce design time and help
eliminate errors by accurately representing terminal
jumpers as part of the control design.
Inserting Spare Terminals
Provide accurate bill of material (BOM) information
by eliminating the guesswork encountered when
planning for spare terminal needs. Users can insert
spare terminals through the Terminal Strip Editor and
accurately update various terminal reports.
Terminal Strip Editor
Easily manage and edit terminals throughout a proj-
ect with the simplified Terminal Strip Editor interface.
With only a few clicks, you can insert spare terminals
or make modifications, such as reversing the left and
right wiring information for a terminal.
Multitier Terminals
Reduce the complexity of using multilevel terminals
in a control design. AutoCAD Electrical enables you
to define and manage the terminal numbers as well
as all connectivity information, within a single, easy-
to-use dialog.
Direct to Terminal Wire Sequencing
Deliver more accurate reports by taking advantage
of the flexibility in the level of control available when
defining the wire connection sequence. Land wires
from multiple devices onto a common terminal, and
have all information accurately reflected in various
terminal and wiring reports.
