These break out cables connect the multicable to the devices, breaking out the power into individual circuits. Single circuit cables also go from the rack or the break out cable to the device.

Jumper cables can be automatically added to the drawing; see Creating a jumper cable chain.

To insert a jumper cable:

1.      Click the tool and mode.

2.Click to place the start of the cable, and draw the cable polyline, clicking at each vertex. Double-click to finish drawing the cable.

The first time you use the tool in a file, a properties dialog box opens. Set the default parameters. The parameters can be edited later from the Object Info palette.
