When placing on typical cable block diagrams reference junction boxes and local panels that have associated circuits, remember the following:

If the reference junction box or local panel has associated circuits, the associated circuits can be placed on a typical CBD only with their associated junction box or local panel. When dragging such a junction box or local panel to a typical CBD, the software places the associated circuit automatically.

You can use a custom compound symbol to represent a junction box or a local panel with associated circuits in the drawing. Make sure that you use an appropriate compound symbol for such a junction box or local panel. That is, the number of circuits in the compound symbol has to match the number of circuits associated with the reference junction box or local panel that that you want to place on a typical CBD. If the number of circuits does not match, the typical CBD will display the associated circuits as they appear in the compound symbol that you used for that reference junction box or local panel.

If you choose not to use a custom compound symbol for a reference junction box or local panel, the software will place associated circuits on the drawing automatically and it will also display the non -power flow association connectors between the junction box and the local panel. You can Hide Association Connectors if you like.

Note that the rules stated above apply only to typical circuits that have been created under reference junction boxes and local panels and not to typical circuits that have been created in the Typical Circuits folder of the Reference Data Explorer.
