Configuring and Placing Switch Frames

Shows step-by-step how to configure and place a switch frame in the model.

Before you begin

You want to configure and place a switch frame for selected rooms in the project.

Requirements:

The current view is the one in which the switch frame is to be placed.

Navigate to:

Project tab ➤ Discipline: Electrical ➤ Library tab

Applies to Electrical.

Procedure

Specify the desired installation height of the switch frame in the Construction level / Offset (+/-) area.
The installation height refers to the vertical center of position 1 of the switch frame.

Note: The specified construction height is ignored in sectional views.
Open the configurator for switch frames in the Configurators area by clicking on Frame ....
Specify the number of positions and the alignment of the switch frame in the Configuration area.
Drag and drop the required components from the component library to their positions.
Check and, if necessary, change the component Type in the Components area.
Click Draw <.
The configured switch frame is attached to the cursor and can be placed on vertical surfaces.
Click to place the configured switch frame at all desired locations and end the process with ESC.
