Conductor Information

For banked conductors, the upcoming Configuration Instructions allow end users to either place all phases together inside one duct, or break the conductor into single phases that occupy individual ducts. In other words, the same Configuration Instructions allow for both use cases for end users.

Each ConductorInfo object record represents a physical conductor and may have a phase designation of A, B, or C and NOT a combination (ABC). However, the same record bears the ObjectID of its “parent” conductor, which informs the application when individual phases are part of the same conductor.

The ConductorInfo object class can be used to provide cable/phase information to the contents list of a cross section if phase designation information exists in the table.

When ConductorInfo is configured correctly, the user may display information from the ConductorInfo table in the annotation contents list. In the example below, the contents list displays the material for each phase of the conductor. Refer to the Configure Annotation Options page for more information about setting up annotation to display ConductorInfo data.

In the image below, the contents list (Duct Number: Phase: Feeder ID:, Material) draws its information from the ConductorInfo table:
