  1. In the Electrical Index, expand the folder hierarchy Electrical Equipment > Loads > Motors.

  2. Right-click the Motors folder, and then select New Motor or New Motor with Heater.

    SHARED Tip If you create a motor without a heater, you can add a heater later by right-clicking the motor, and on the shortcut menu, selecting New Space Heater.

  3. Accept the default item tag that is based on the naming convention for the motor or type your own item tag according to the naming convention. See Using Naming Conventions.

  4. On the Electrical Motor Common Properties dialog, edit the motor properties as required. See Edit Electrical Motor Common Properties.

  • On the Preferences dialog, General tab, under Open after creating or duplicating an item, you can specify whether to open the Item Tag dialog when you create a new electrical motor.

  • The Electrical Motor Common Properties dialog shows the most commonly used properties. You access this dialog by selecting the Common Properties command on the shortcut menu or you can specify in the preferences to open the dialog directly when you create a new electrical motor.

  • You can also edit the most commonly used properties and additional properties in the Properties window or in the EDE.

  • When you add a motor with a space heater, the heater appears as a sub-item of the motor. The motor symbol includes an indication that it has a space heater PPM All Outputs Graphic. If you subsequently delete the motor, the software deletes the heater also.

  • If the parent folder contains custom folders, the created item is placed in the root folder. If the items properties match the filter properties of a custom folder a copy of the item is also placed in the custom folder. Refreshing or closing and re- opening Smart Electrical moves the item from the root folder to the All Items folder.
