Substation Specific Standard Library
Parts (Components)
What is a Standard Part (Component)
Standard parts are either elements that create a module
(circuit) or a component that holds material information
that is created in AutoCAD Electrical
How to Build Standard Parts (Components
 Use a standard that is part of a national standard. Duke
decided on IEEE
 Industry standard proposal in progress
How to Store Standard Parts (Components) in an
Enterprise Library
 AutoCAD Electrical 2015/ Autodesk Vault 2015
integration strategy
Final Steps for Standard Parts (Components)
 Use the 3 major attributes of an AutoCAD Electrical
Component to make it searchable, orderable and
updatable
 Tag = Wiring Name (Name on Wiring Print)
 Location Code = The Physical Location
 Installation Code = Zone of Protection (Bank 1, Bus 2, etc.)
Substation Engineering
Standard Circuits
What is an ACADE circuit?
 A Circuit in ACADE is
collection of parts in a
module or multiple
components or modules
that are built together to
form a single
representation that can
be inserted as one
selection.
Two Types of Circuits
 Modules – is a combination of components that have a
common SINGLE Parent device that holds material
ordering information.
 Schemes – is a combination of components and
modules to create a standard specific to a design built
around a drawing type.
Why Standard Engineering Circuits?






Common user interaction and workflow
Consistent output
Single Library infrastructure
Improved drawing & BOM quality
Easy Upgrades of design circuits
Industry Standard
Creating Circuits using Save Circuit Option
Save Circuit




Lets our users stay in a single
environment(Icon Menu) to
access the Standard Designs
along with individual
components if needed.
Easy to create while building
from already created ACADE
parts. No custom programing
needed (circuit builder)
Can control the standards more
effectively using Vault.
Very little learning curve to
teach the Parts Builders
Save Circuit – Soft Points
 This is a method for
making it configurable
 Makes the user delete the
parts of the standard
circuit if not needed, puts
the designer in control but
still starting off with a
agreed standard
 Easy way to control which
parts are editable to the
end user
SEL Creation (Module)
Putting the SEL Together (Building)




Add the Pinlist information in the
Pinlist table for the SEL using the
format of (1,A01,A02*IN102) in the
Catalog Database

(Pinlist_type,Pin#, Pin#,*I/O State)
You add your parent device first in
the drawing
Start to build the SEL with all of the
needed I/O and using the parent
child ability, link the child I/O.
Create the SEL as a Save circuit,
place in Vault and create the Icon
menu button for access to the SEL
in the menu
How to Build the Separate SEL Parts to Standards

For all microprocessor relays, the power supply
will be the parent.
Relay inputs shall clearly indicate the relay’s
primary use (INST), name (DESC1), input
number (state), and purpose of the input
(DESC2).
Relay outputs shall clearly indicate the relay’s
primary use (INST), name (DESC1), output
number (state), and purpose of the output
(DESC2).
Normally Open (1), Normally Closed (2) and
Form C (3) outputs will follow AutoCAD
Electrical standard pin assignments. AutoCAD
Electrical allows the user a method of
identifying pins which may not be normally open
(NO) or normally closed (NC) as found on
general relays. A user defined terminal starting
with “4” as been established and will be utilized
for various terminal types.
The Pinlist standard name will be put in a
attribute called PINLIST_TYPE

Adding User interacted menu selections
 In the Schematic Icon menu
create a folder that will house
all of the SEL configurations
 Each is broken down by a
SEL type folder
 351, 531, 351S, etc.
 Have a folder setup to house
the individual parts so that the
user can access the individual
parts needed to add to the
current SEL. Also used for the
Parts Builder to create the
Standard SEL configuration
Creating Schemes (Circuits)
Two types of Schemes
 Two types of Schemes:
 Schemes with Project file (.wdp)
 Schemes by drawing type accessed from a circuit icon menu
Schemes with Project File (.wdp)
 Definition: A scheme that is created and saved with a
.wdp file associated with it, and is used as a starting
point for a project, if that project does not exist in
ACADE.
 All necessary drawings and the .wdp file are saved
together.
 Use the Copy Project function to initiate
Schemes by Drawing Type
 Definition: A Scheme that is created and saved by its
necessary parts by drawing type and accessed from
the icon menu as needed, by drawing type.
 Saved under a common folder in both the Icon menu
and file structure
 Can also be created form existing schemes with .wdp
file
Scheme – Substation Wild Card Characters
 Use a standard set of
wildcards, ACADE can
take advantage of
replacing those wild
cards, using
export/import, with
station specific data
 Also can create custom
coding to make the input
easier

Scheme – User Interaction
 Use the Icon Menu to
have the user have one
point of interaction from
parts to accessing
standard circuits
 Adding Standard circuits
to the icon menu is just
as easy as adding
components
Library Development Strategy
Duke Energy Library Development
 What makes up a standard library?
 Parts (Components)
 Circuits
 How is the library populated?
 Librarians
 Parts/Device Builders
Duke Energy Role Based Approach
 L1 Training – Parts/Device Builder
 Prerequisite - None
 L2 Training – Designer Training
 Prerequisite – Pass L1 exam
 L3 Training – Librarian Training
 Prerequisite – Pass L2 exam and manager approval
ACADE/ Vault Standard Workflow
Benefits of Saving Schematic/Wiring/Panel/Circuit
using Vault

Currently




Saving out on a LAN share drive that
only certain personnel have access to
for creating or editing
Have a routine to run on user machine
to copy down to C: Drive
Issue is that the current process is a
Save As type function
With Vault integration




Have a Version history to see evolution
of standard circuit
Gives us the ability to go back and
revive previous approved versions if
needed
Have a real-time approval standard
circuit workflow
All users working off of local C: drive
and eliminate cross-contamination
ACADE/ Vault Logistics
 Create a common folder structure that will be used for
Vault storage and end user access
 Create separate revision categories in Vault to
separate components vs. circuits
 Create the components/circuits, along with .png image
files, as you would without Vault while logged into vault
using symbol builder
ACADE/ Vault Logistics
 Attach the .png file to the .dwg. Then delete the image
in the .dwg to not have it show in the component or
circuit. It is still attached for edit simultaneously with the
component or circuit
 Check it into Vault in the correct location and set to an
Ready for Approval state

QA Process for ACADE symbols using Vault
 Create a search filter for QA to
see what is needing approval
 If not approved, the Master
Librarian is the only one who
can set the item back to a Work
In Progress state and notify the
Parts Builder to correct errors.
 If approved, the Master
Librarian is the only one who
can set to a Release state, this
makes it available to the end
users to download and use from
there working location
Releasing ACADE components/modules/schemes
using Vault
 Setting the
components/modules/schemes to
a released state in Vault
 User download only the LASTEST
release versions even if there are
some in the next rev work in
progress state.
 Master Librarian has the final say
on what is released to the public
 Retains archived versions to go
back to or review if needed.
ACADE Bill of Material Setup and Extraction
Catalog/ Component setup
 Setup a catalog families with a Z prefix to have the
ability to upgrade to new version of ACADE without
impact from out of box family codes
 Using the Use Misc_Cat table only if component
specific table does not exist option
 Access the custom defined user family codes (not block name)
Catalog/ Component Setup
 Using the WDBLKNAM attribute in components
 Added to Parent device, Wiring diagram, and Panel only, Not
child components
 Add the Z prefix the matches the family needed
 Ex: block name HPR1_XXXX.dwg in the WDBLKNAM value is ZPR
Catalog Extract
 Using the Panel BOM to include the Schematic
 Only select the schematic drawings and panel drawings. Do not
include the wiring, as they are already in the schematic.
 Extract to .csv file extension format to import into a
ERP system using an custom import.
Standard Workflow
Standard Workflow for Adding Components and
Modules
 Start with single line and three line drawings first. Then
complete Panel, Wiring, and Schematic drawings in
that order
 This allows for a quick BOM production, if needed
 To access the information from the Panel, use the
Manufacturer option to apply the equivalent wiring
diagram
Scheme Workflow (demo)
 Video
