About wire numbers
Wire numbers can be assigned to any existing wires on an individual selection,
an entire drawing, selected drawings in a project, or an entire project.
AutoCAD
®
Electrical assigns a unique wire number to each wire network. A
wire network consists of one or more wires that are electrically connected.
Inserting wire numbers
You can process and tag wires with sequential wire numbers or with wire
numbers based upon the line reference location start of the wire network.
When wire numbers are automatically inserted into a drawing, the numbers
are not duplicated.
AutoCAD Electrical works from left to right, top to bottom as it processes wire
networks by default. You can change the direction of wire numbering using
the Project Properties ➤ Wire Numbers dialog box (in the Project Manager.
Right-click the project name, and select Properties. In the Project Properties
dialog box, click the Wire Numbers tab).
