Merge/Fix Wires??

Some of my wires have multiple wire numbers on because the wire is not 'one' wire but two or three joined together, although it looks like a single wire.

Apart from deleating all the wires and re-drawing, is there a way to 'merge' or 'fix' the wire so that ACE knows it is a single wire and requires only one wire number?

Multiple wires should not cause mutliple wire numbers. AcadE reads through
them and considers them one network. One thing to check is Project
Properties, Wire Number tab, make sure the "On per wire basis" is not
checked. If that isn't it you could send me a drawing directly at
pat.murnen@autodesk.com and I could take a look.

It seems my problem was simple. The wires in question were overloapping each other.

Is there a command the links wire networks so to tidy the wires up?

There isn't really an AutoCAD Electrical command that would clean up these
overlapping wires. It might be hard for AcadE to know what was intended.
Glad you figured out what was causing the extra wire numbers though.

You can use the overkill command. It can also two end to end lines together.
