    Add Additional Breaker Size

    How to add additional breaker size?
    1. First step is to locate electrical dataset. From Workspace>Configuration look for variable BBESDATA. This variable points to electrical dataset.
    2. Use windows explorer to navigate to electrical dataset( the location BBESDATA points to).
    3. Locate Metadata folder under electrical dataset.
    4. Open file UDApanel.ini from metadata folder. Breaker size 200 A will be added to existing selection set.
    5. Scroll down to section Breaker panel. There are 14 existing breaker sizes. (Item1- Item 14)
    6. At the end of this file, add additional entry:
    Item15=200
    7. In section HowMany change total number to 15.
    8. Save UDAPanel.ini file.
    9. When setting breaker size in Cable Manager, option 200 A is now available for selection.
