Wiring harness routing & packaging Rules Week 3 Challenge

Wiring harness routing & packaging Rules

Objective-

1- Download the following cad data & define it as Electrical support using the Electrical Part Design Workbench. Define all the necessary properties.

2- Download the following Back shell cad data & define it as an Electrical back shell using Electrical Part Design Workbench. Define all the necessary properties.

3- Create the Following Corrugated tubes & add them to the Catalogue under the “Slit COT” family.

Name	ID (mm)	OD (mm)	Thickness (mm)
15mm COT	12	15	1.5
20mm COT	17	20	1.5
35mm COT	32	35	1.5
10mm COT	7	10	1.5
5mm COT	3	5	1

• P CLAMP:

• Open the cad file in Catia v5.
• open the mechanical part design workbench.
• define the planes and points.
• switch to the electrical part workbench
• define the part as support.
• define the two-entry point and two-exit points. 

• BACK SHELL:

• Back shell connection point:
• To create such a Backshell connection point, follow the below steps:
• Switch to part design,
• Create a midpoint
• Create Axis System with respect to the point which we have created and define the axis direction as shown below
• Switch to 'Electric Part Design'
• Define the part as backshell.
• Define the backshell connection point.

• • Bundle connection point:
  • The bundle connection point is used to specify the position and the direction of the bundle segment connected to the connector or the equipment.
  • Switch to part design,
  • Create a midpoint on the contact face which will be normal to wire bundle insertion.
  • Switch to 'Electric Part Design'
  • Since we had already defined the component as a Backshell.
  • so, Define Bundle connection point

• CORRUGATED TUBES:

• create the new part file.
• switch to electrical part design
• define the protection part on the basis of given data.
