Circuit breakers and relays may have additional contacts.
How to use these components in projects AutoCAD Electrical?
How to import project data into Inventor Professional?
It depends on what you mean by additional contacts...
If you mean a contact block that attaches to a contactor, relay or CB then you need to click on the 'Multiple Catalog' button in the Edit Component dialog and find the correct block in the component catalog. You may need to add this if it does not already exist.
If the part has an associated pinlist, this will be added to the pinlist of the main component and be available from the pin list when adding extra contacts.
If you mean within the schematic, you select the correct contact from the component menu and then select Drawing, Parent or Parent/Sibling to associate the contact with the coil/CB.
Drawing will give you a list of matching components from the current drawing.
Project will give you a list of matching components from the entire project.
Parent/Sibliing will allow youpick from the current drawing.
As for exporting to Inventor, the command to do this is under the Reports menu/tab. I don't use inventor so can't advise on what the procedure is here.
