Hi Sathy,

You will have to create a custom block. Here are the steps:

1) Copy any existing terminal from the symbol library to a new name (Ex:
HT0001.dwg to HT0006.dwg)
2) Open the symbol drawing
3) Rename the attributes X2TERM01,
X2TERMDESC01,X2PIN01,X8TERMDESC01,X8TERM01,X8PIN01 to X2TERM02,
X2TERMDESC02, X2PIN02,X8TERMDESC02,X8TERM02,X8PIN02 respectively.
4) Add an invisible attribute WD_NOTJUMPERED and set its default value to
01.
5) Save the file and use the block in your drawing. This should come up
with horizontal wires which change wire numbers and vertical wires
which do not change wire numbers.

The changed block by naming convention, shorts all the wires which
connects to it. The WD_NOTJUMPERED attribute will make the attributes which
are numbered after it to get new wire numbers.

I have attached a sample. Hope this helps.
