A single-core cable assembly is a grouping of single-core cables that Smart Electrical manages as a whole entity and not as individual cables, thus reducing repetitive work, mistakes, and inconsistencies. For example, sometimes there is a need to connect three-phase (3 wire, 4 or 5 wire) equipment using individual single-core cables, one core per phase, often needed when dealing with high voltage or high current cables.
Note that it is possible to change the formation of an existing single-core cable
assembly by adding or deleting the constituent neutral and grounding cables in the
Single-Core Cable Assembly Common Properties Dialog. However, this is not possible if the single-core cable assembly has the DC phase
arrangement. For details, see Change the Formation of a Single-Core Cable Assembly.
