[PP_EDITINSULATOR]
Edits, adds or removes insulators from a support
Options:
- Support name: read-only.
- Data model: read-only.
- Insulators grid:
- No.: attachment point’s number in the table, read-only.
- Attachment Point: name of the attachment point. Note: tension attachment points have two points, e.g. there are two AP1 points. Read-only field.
- Phase/Ground wire: attachment points can be used for either phase conductors or ground wires. Read-only field.
- Orientation: attachment points orientation can be one of the following: back, front, center, and ground wire. Tension attachment points have two points, one with front and the other with back orientation. Only strain insulators can be attached on them. Center orientation is used for suspension or pin insulators, and ground wire orientation is for ground wires only. For more details refer to Appendix 2: Attachment Points on Support. Read-only field.
- Insulator: name of the insulator model attached to the attachment point. If no insulator is chosen “None” is displayed. To add an insulator, select one of the options in the dropdown list. To remove attached insulator, select “None” from the dropdown. Note: based on the attachment point orientation different insulator models will be shown in the dropdown list.
- Apply to all supports of the same data model checkbox: if it is checked all changes made in the grid will be applied to all supports in the drawing with the same model listed in the “Data Model” field (Note: if there are more power lines in the current drawing, changes will be made for all of them).
- Button Pick an attachment point: closes the dialog and zooms to the support. All attachment points will be visible in 3D view. Selected attachment point will be highlighted in the grid. This button is only optional and is not needed to be used to fill the grid.
- Button OK: applies the changes.
- Button Cancel: cancels the command.
