Wiring harness routing & packaging Rules Week 3 Challenge
AIM:
- To solve the above assignment questions and define the necessary electrical properties in the respective workbench.
OBJECTIVE:
- To download the P-Clamp CAD data and define it as Electrical Support in the Electrical Part design workbench and also define the necessary electrical properties.
- To download the Backshell CAD data and define it as Electrical Back shell in the Electrical Part design workbench and also define the necessary electrical properties.
- To create Following Corrugated tubes and add them in Catalogue under “Slit COT” family.

P - CLAMP:
BACKSHELL:
Step - 1:
- First download the 3-D CAD part of the backshell
-
Step - 2:
- Identify from which side the bundle will enter and the side which will mate with the connector.
Step - 3:
- Create mid-point at the bundle entry side.
- Create mid-point at the connector mating side.
Step - 4:
- Create an Axis system at the Connector mating side.
- The axis system should be created at the center of the mating surface.
- The axis must be defined as defined for the connectors show that it will connect easily.
- Y- axis: Normal to the mating surface
- X-axis: Normal to the locking side
Step - 5:
- To define the Electrical properties, we need to navigate to the Electrical Part design workbench.
- There we need to define the component as the 'Backshell'.
Step - 6:
- Define the Backshell connection point.
- Then define the Bundle connection point.

-
3. CORRUGATED TUBES:
- Corrugated Tubes are used as protection coverings for the wire bundle from any type of damages.
Step - 1:
- Create a Catalogue document and adding Slit COT as a family and saving the document in our desired folder.
Step - 2:
- Creating the following corrugated tubes as per the dimensions given in the table and storing in the Slit COT family catalogue document.
