Wiring harness design in CATIA V5 - 3D modeling Week 5 & 6 Challenge

Q1. Route the following harness layout in Electrical workbench. Make assumption for harness bundle diameters. Use the connectors provided. After completion of routing.

given data

to provide the electrical properties

The electrical connectors are represented by numbers in the above figure. There are 8 different types of connectors at 10 different locations.

2. Bundle continuity has to be checked for the two created harnesses.

3. After the two Harnesses are created, the next objective is to have them interconnected electrically.

4. Check for bundle warnings in Harness A and Harness B.

5. Add annotations to all the connectors in Harness A and Harness B.

to provide the electrical properties the both of the connectors of the bundle connection point and connector connection point.

harness A assembly

After all the connectors are defined, the workbench was switched to Electrical Harness Assembly where Geometrical Bundle was activated. All the connectors were routed using the Multi-Branchable Document command.
