You can create the following types of panel in the Electrical Index:
Cabinets
Multi-purpose electrical enclosures for various types of equipment. You can create a cabinet as a stand-alone item, or it can be retrieved from Smart Electrical. You can define a cabinet as a load and, like any other load, connect it to a feeder circuit. For more information, see Create a Cabinet.
Control Stations
Small cabinets containing low voltage start-stop circuitry used to control a load at a remote location. You can create control stations with or without associated cables. A control station can be associated with one or more cables (control, grounding, or instrumentation cable). After a cable is associated with a control station, the control station becomes the To side of that cable. A control station can be associated with a load. When the creation of the control station is the result of an automated process, the association is made automatically, both with the cable and with the load. In case the control station is created manually, the user is responsible for these associations. For more information, see Create a Control Station.
Local Panels
Cabinets containing circuit, equipment, and wiring items, used for example, to provide switching or isolation close to a motor. For more information, see Create a Local Panel.
Junction Boxes
Cabinets used to connect wires that run between various items of electrical equipment. In other words, junction boxes are containers for electrical connections. For more information, see Create a Junction Box.
In contrast to PDBs (power distribution boards), panels are much smaller in size
and do not contain busbars.
