Changing Wire Type

If you need to change the type of your catenary or auxiliary wire, you can do so by following these steps.


Step 1: Click the 'Edit' button in the 'Wires' section of the Lineardraft toolbar

This will open the wire and structure selection window.

Step 2: Click on the wire of which you want to change the type and click 'Edit'

Alternatively, you can select your wire from the drop-down menu. You do not need to select a structure. Clicking 'Edit' will open the 'Edit Wire' window.

Step 3: Select your new wire type from the drop-down

You can filter the list by design catalogue and search for the type by name.

Please note: The drop-down will only show wire types that are compatible with the equipment your wire is already attached to, and if there are equivalent span types to those currently selected.

Step 4: Click 'Update Wire'

This will close the 'Edit Wire' window and apply the changes to your wire.
