Wiring harness routing & packaging Rules Week 3 Challenge
P CLAMP
P clamps are used to mount or hold the different housing in wiring harness and the other applications.

To Define P Clamp:
- First Defined the Geometry parameters like Points and Planes.
- Define Support part command is used to convert it into electrical support.
- Took the entry point and plane, base plane and exit point and plane of the P clamp.
- Defined Entry, Exit and Base plane using support definition command.

Back shell
Back shells are the dressing and packaging devices/covers used at the end of the connectors as a retention devices.
To Define Back Shell:
- First Defined the Geometry parameters like Points and Axis System.
- Defined the geometry as Back Shell using command Define back Shell > Electrical Device Definition.
- Defined as Back shell Connection point and Connection Bundle point.

Corrogated or COT Tubes are made according to requirements in differnet sizes.
To make COT Tubes
- Create a part body.
- Use Protection Covering Command
- Select Type and parameters to make COT TUbes, given 1.5 times bend radius.
- Created a Catalogue named "Slit Tubes" and added all the Cot tubes to use them multiple times.
