Electrical Settings
In the Electrical Settings dialog box, the options
you choose define the graphical representation of items such as tick
marks or circuit names. Here you can also define voltages and the
behavior of distribution systems. There are settings for conduit and
cable tray displays and sizes as well. There is also the ability to
designate the label to be used for spares and spaces in panel schedules,
as shown in
Figure 2.41
. You can also merge multi-pole circuits into a
single cell. These settings are applied to all panel schedules in your
projects.

There are also MEP settings for load classifications and demand factors as
well as building/space type settings. All of these should be established in
your template to the extent that they are used in your projects.
Creating Sheet Standards
Drawing sheets are a key element of your project template. Because these
are often the delivered product, it is important that they are put together in
a consistent manner. The ability to easily manage the information included
in your sheet views is one of the benefits of establishing sheet standards in a
project template.
