Wiring harness design - 3D modelling Week 2 Challenge

AIM:

To Define the Given Connector as Electrical Connector Using Electrical Part Design Workbench. And define all the Necessary properties to the Given Connector and the Given Clips

GIVEN DATA:

· The Connector Is First Uploaded in The Part Design Workbench.

· We Define the Points for Connector Connection and Bundle Connection.

· The Axis Systems Are Placed on The Connector Connection and Cavity Connection Points. The Orientation of The Axis System Is Not Specific.

· We Just Need to Follow a Similar Orientation for All the Parts.

· Here The Y-Axis Is in The Direction of The Connection, Z-Axis Along with The Clip Mounting and X-Axis Along Bottom to Top.

· Now We Define This Part as An Electrical Element/Connector, With the Number of Terminals.

· Connector Connection and Bundle Connection Is Defined in The Electrical Part Design Workbench.

The Same Process Was Followed for The Second Connector. Here We Need to Include the Connector-Cavity Connection Point. This Is Done to Fix the Clip on To the Connector.

The Clip Has to Be Defined as A Cavity in The Electrical Part Design Workbench.

Electric Assembly Design

• Import Connector and cavity / mounting clip.
• Select Define Electric connection
• select cavity and then connector.
