Displays and defines the general properties of the cable tray component.

Standard

Cableway

Specifies the name of the cableway run. You can select another run from the list if necessary.

<Load More Runs> loads all the runs that belong to the parent system. This option is not available after you load all the runs, or if the parent system contains less than 200 runs.

More displays the Select Cableway dialog. Use this option to select a cableway that is associated with a different electrical system.

Specification

Displays the cableway specification.

Angle

Type an angle at which you want the component rotated. Any previous settings are automatically updated.

Part

Displays the part description of the component.

The additional properties listed in the Standard category depend on the exact component that you are placing.

Maintenance Volume

A maintenance volume is space reserved for installing and maintaining cables in a cable tray and can be defined at the cableway level and optionally overridden at the feature level. You can also define maintenance volumes for duct banks to reserve space for a mud mat below the duct bank. Use the Format > View command to turn on the Maintenance aspect so you can see the maintenance volumes in the model.

Maintenance Volume Properties Option

Select Use Run Properties to use the maintenance volume properties defined for the parent run. Select Default Feature Properties to define maintenance volume settings that are unique for this feature. This option is only available when editing the properties of a feature.

Maintenance Shape

Specifies the maintenance volume shape: Rectangle, Round, or Flat Oval.

Maintenance Diameter

Specifies the diameter of the maintenance volume. This option is only available when Maintenance Shape is set to Round.

Maintenance Width

Specifies the width of the maintenance volume. This option is only available when Maintenance Shape is set to Rectangle or Flat Oval.

Maintenance Depth

Specifies the depth of the maintenance volume. This option is only available when Maintenance Shape is set to Rectangle or Flat Oval.

Maintenance Justification

Specifies how the maintenance volume (gray box below) aligns with the feature (blue cross section below). There are ten options available: (1) Top Left, (2) Top Center, (3) Top Right, (4) Center Left, (5) Center Center, (6) Center Right, (7) Bottom Left, (8) Bottom Center, (9) Bottom Right, and User Defined.

Maintenance Width Offset

Specifies the width offset distance. This option is only available when Maintenance Justification is set to User Defined.

Maintenance Depth Offset

Specifies the depth offset distance. This option is only available when Maintenance Justification is set to User Defined.

Fill Information

Fill Efficiency

Specifies the efficiency of the stacking of cables in the cableway. Type a real number, integer, or percent. For example, type 0.9, 90, or 90%.

Signal Type

Specifies the cable usage, which Smart 3D uses in tray fill calculations. To change the options on the list, edit the Signal Type select list in Catalog.

Voltage Grade

Specifies the voltage grade, which Smart 3D uses when determining the range of voltage that the cableway can carry. To change the options on the list, edit the Voltage Grade select list in Catalog.
