AutoCad 3D :: Electrical Conduits Layout In Building?
Jun 9, 2012
I want to lay electrical conduits in my model but have problem when the conduit changes plane. how can i quickly lay conduits may be by using bends etc as blocks.. if possible... and then just extend conduits using extend command or just giving the distance....
bend.JPG
I have heard that Autocad MEP is great for laying electrical conduits etc. I tried using it but could not get desired results because of probably wrong settings. the biggest problem is the bend radius. also i would like to know how to use custom switch boxes and junction boxes as per my country standards.

I have a terminal from Phoenix Contact(their p/n 3031429) it's a 2 level terminal - sttb4. When I associate two terminals (one on the top points, and one for the bottom points), it ends up putting the wrong terminal number on the top line. It does not matter what order i click as "master terminal" or not. And When I am dealing with a PLC, I use multiple 2-highs and it is a pain to constantly go in and manually force it to switch. I will always have one terminal with the wire number(based on rung number) and one based off from a PLC address. Is there a way when associating these terminals it will alway look at the PLC address as the top point?

What type of line are you using to show electrical wiring in a house, I've used the arc line and I really don't like the flexibility of that, it want bend like I want it to. The next thing I'm trying now is to use a leader line without arrows, that works better, you can bend that little rascal all over the place.

Any method other than 'font mapping' to convert drawing file to PDF with text searchable feature. Because we are having huge repository of drawing files its difficult go back and do font mapping. Even its works for only at MTEXT.
So, any converter which converts the drawing file to PDF with text searchable PDF.

I've created a family that represents a poke-through with nested, shared families for different components. Everything visible in plan is made with Symbolic lines instead of Generic Annotations. The reasons being too numerous to explain here.
The problem I'm running into is that the family looks fine when the View Discipline is set to Architectural but when set to Electrical (1/8" scale in both) part of the shared components begin to get masked. I cannot figure out why they are behaving this way, except that some of the lines are creating some sort of masking area in the Electrical discipline. When the nested families are not shared the component looks fine in both disciplines. I've attached images and the family for you to try.

When looking at architect CAD drawings in magazines I notice that they use figures, trees, cars, etc. to add scale to the building. I'd like to be able to do the same.
Is it possible to import similar images into AutoCad 2014?
One other question: if I'm drawing a house plan and I have specified the wall thickness by drawing 2 lines to represent the outer and inner boundary, how do I 'fill' the thickness of the wall; as opposed to just leaving it white/empty?
