Process :

1. For Defining P Clamp :

  • Create two points one as entry and another as exit point.
  • create planes at two points and another at base.
  • Switch to Electric part desgn
  • Click on support defination - select part - select entry point - select entry plane, exit and base plane.
  • Again Click on support defination - select part - select exit point - select exit plane and base plane as secondary plane is automatically taken. We define it again as support so that we select it fom any direction as entry or exit.

2. For Defining Backshell :

  • create Back shell entry point.
  • create axis system for back shell entry.
  • create bundle connection point.
  • switch to Electrical part design.
  • Define part electricaly as back shell.
  • Then define Back shell connection point.
  • Define bundle connection point.

3. Creating Corrugated Tube :

Crating Cot Tubes For given sizes

  • Switch to Electrical part design
  • Select Define protection Part
  • Click on part (on file name in specification tree)
  • Provide given parameters and bend radius as '1.5 x Outer Dia'.

4. Creating Catalog for Cot Tubes :

  • New part > catalogue document > add family > give name > type > select Conduit > Save.
  • Open part to add catalogue > store device command > select catalogue > family > Slit_cot_tube > Ok

Conclusion :

1. Downloaded the P Clamp from TE connectivity and defined it as Electrical Support.

2. Downloaded the Backshell from TE connectivity and defined it in Electrical Part Design.

3. Created Corogated Tubes for given sizes and made it's Catalog.
