Receptacle connection problem

[m9905101]

hello,

I have some problem about the junction box connection. The 2D drawing is below

the junction bos have to connect 4 receptacle, but when I connected 2nd receptacle, I always got a message "You have selected elements that are already part of other Circuits. They will be removed from the original Circuits and added to this one."

Does anyone know how to make junction box to be a mutiple function fixture? I mean it can be allowed to connect several receptracles. Thanks for replying!

The family will need to have four electrical Connectors. Then when selected to add to a circuit, you will be prompted to choose one of the Connectors from a list.

A standard Junction box can connect multiple connectors together if the are on the same circuit. If you are connecting receptacles together from different circuits then you experience the problem you highlighted. If you need to use a junction box that allows different circuits onto the object then you would need to have more than one electrical connector in the junction box family.

A question that comes to mind as you mentioned 2D - are you using a junction box as an electrical cable junction box where you have one cable in that then distribute to your receptacles or are you using it to replicate 2D drawings and cable runs in which case just use geomtetry and do not include it in circuits.
