5.12.11.26.5.1. Function

Validated electrical parts contain important information like mounting points, symbols, alternative views, technical parameters, classifications, part numbers, etc.

In addition to material master data, all necessary electrical information is provided which is required for the creation of the circuit diagram, the switch cabinet layout, and wiring and for the creation of the cable harness.

Catalogs can have three different certification levels:

  1. Basic - Geometric component data:

    • Material master data

    • Preview image

    • 3D shape (STEP)

  2. Certified - Geometric component data enriched with electrical characteristics:

    • Component type

    • Circuit symbols

    • 3D representation with connection points

    • Master-slave relationships

    • Connection points with names and symbol and component assignments

    • Cross-section definitions at the connection points

    • Positioning information for the control cabinet

  3. Premium - Comprehensive classification:

    Parts which also have accessory or relationship intelligence

    • All eCl@ss component attributes

    • Mating connectors for plugged connection points

    • Connection type, connection direction and number of permitted wires at the connection point.

    • Slots for additional parts and information on restricted areas

Details can be found under Section 5.12.11.27, “Classification certification levels”.

With the help of the Create class system for filters plugin[56] a catalog can be analyzed in a batch run with regard to the requirements for certification.

In the first step of evaluation, the tool delivers XML data for the batch verification (ECADPS3VERIFY), which then are transferred in CSV data. This data can be graphically presented with the help of an Excel template in the form of Pivot tables and charts.



[56] The function is based on ECADPS3. See Section 5.12.11.26.4, “Verify classification”.
