Wiring harness routing & packaging Rules Week 3 Challenge

Q1. Download following cad data & define it as Electrical support using Electrical Part design Workbench. Define all the necessary properties.

P clamp

Steps.

• Once the File is Downloaded, Open the File Using CATIA V5
• Using the Part design model, we define entry, Exit, Base points, and Planes
• After determining the points and planes open the file in Electrical Part design
• Now we need to define the part as a Support using the Define support Part
• Here we use the Required points and planes as an Entry and exit of the clamp for one side
• And use the support definition again to give an entry point on the opposite side by selecting the point opposite of the first support definition while keeping the base plane the same

Q2. Download following Back shell cad data & define it as Electrical back shell using Electrical Part design Workbench. Define all the necessary properties.

Tyco 1738312-1 https://www.te.com/usa-en/product-1738312-1.html

Steps.

• Once the File is Downloaded, Open the File Using CATIA V5
• Using the Part design model, we define 2 points as the Bundle entry and Connector connection point with Axis
• After determining the points and planes open the file in Electrical Part design
• Now we need to define the part as a Backshell using Define Back shell Feature
• After defining it as the Backshell we need to define the connection points
• End, where the Back shell is connected with the connector, is defined using Define Back Shell Connection Point Feature
• End where the bundle is connected to the back shell defined using Define Bundle Connection Point Feature
• After giving the necessary properties Save the file.

Q3. Create Following Corrugated tubes & Add them in Catalogue under “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

Steps.

• Open CATIA V5 with Electrical Part Design Model
• Using Define Protection Part
• Select the type as Corrugated Tube
• Give the Required Parameters (Inner dia, Thickness, Bend Radii( Bend Radii= 1.5 times the OD))
• Click on OK
• After giving the necessary properties Save the file.

• Create the catalog add family name “Slit COT” .
• Add all the corrugated tube in this catalog for used device storage.
