Concept: The Electrical Cabinet

Project Scenario
Piping and Cabling Systems Incorporated (PCSI) is a supplier of fluid and gas piping systems to many industries.
They design and manufacture fluid and gas piping systems, including the associated electrical control and
cabling systems.

You work in a cross-functional team of engineers involved in the design of electrical harness systems. You are
working on a new manifold piping system, which involves the design of wiring diagrams and the design of
associated electrical harness designs that form part of the manifold control panel. This project takes you through
the activities associated with the development of the wiring diagram and the design of the electrical harness.

Minimal Instructions
Because all tasks in this project are based on topics that you have learned throughout this course, instructions for
each project step are minimal. There are no step-by-step "picks and clicks" given. This provides you with a
chance to test your knowledge of the materials as you proceed though the project.

Completed Models for Reference

Be sure to save all project models within the Projects classroom folder structure. The projects folder also
contains sub-folders named Cabling_Schematics-2, Cabling_Schematics-3, Cabling_Schematics-4,
Cabling_Schematics-5, and completed_Schematics. In the four Cabling_Schematics-X folders, you will find
a version of each model as is needed to begin that objective number. You can use these models to begin a given
objective, if needed. In the completed_Schematics folder, you will find a completed version of each model at the
conclusion of the project. Again, these completed models can be used as reference, if required.
