Creating Floor Plans, Elevation
Views, and One-Line Diagrams
Introduction
This section illustrates how to use the GE wizards described earlier to create
animated displays of the facility floor plan, switchgear elevations, and system one-
line diagrams. These examples are typical, but are not intended to display the limits
of creative system design.
Elevation Views
Elevation views of switchgear and switchboards are typically created first, because
miniature bitmaps of the elevations can be conveniently placed in floor plans as
navigation items.
To build an elevation view, place GE Elevation and Small Faceplate wizards into the
window, as follows:
1. Place the appropriate cabinet.
2. Place panels onto the cabinet.
3. Add nameplates, louvers, handles, and fasteners to create the desired level of
detail.
4. Place GE Small Faceplate wizards representing the components installed in the
equipment on top of the elevation wizards, as shown in the figure on the
following page.
5. Configure each of the Small Faceplate wizards to open a window containing an
appropriate Large Faceplate or Tabular Data Screen for the device.
