To access this dialog , select the Manage Operating Cases command button on the Common Properties of the relevant electrical equipment item. For a bus, select the Manage Operating Cases command button on the Bus Load Association dialog.

Operating Case

Displays the name of the operating case as it was defined in Options Manager. The active case always appears at the top of the list.

Item Tag Properties

The columns that appear to the right of the Operating Case column display the values of the relevant properties for the current item tag. Plant items belonging to different item types have different properties in this grid. You can select in a cell and type a value as needed. Also, you can copy and paste values using the Copy and Paste commands.

If you type in a value that does not comply with the format for the current property, an error message is displayed.

  • When creating a plant item in the Electrical Index, and if the plant item properties that are included in the Manage Operating Cases dialog have default values, these values are set in all the existing operating cases of the current plant. Note that default values are set in the Data Dictionary Manager or the Project Wide Parameters in Options Manager.

  • When creating a plant item in the Electrical Index by dragging an item from the Reference Data Explorer and if the reference item has properties that are included in the Manage Operating Cases dialog , the values that appear in those properties are copied only to the active case of the current plant. All other cases in the plant will contain default values if they exist. If no default values have been set for those properties, all the other operating cases will not contain any values for those properties.

  • When calculating load totals for buses and circuits, the software stores the name of the plant operating case that was used during the latest calculation. The name of this operating case is displayed at the top of the Properties window just above the toolbar and on the Batch Load Association dialog . Note that the Last Calculated Case Name and Last Calculated Case Description properties are available when defining EDE layouts and relevant reports.
