Use circuitry
You can save groupings of components, wires, ladders, and other entities as
circuits. Like blocks, saved circuits are inserted as a single object. Saved circuits
save time when your projects require common arrangements of components,
such as motor starters or control circuits.
When you use any of the AutoCAD Electrical Insert Circuit commands to
insert a circuit, the circuit explodes. Wire numbers and component tags are
updated according to the tag settings of the current drawing. However, fixed
tags are not updated.
Copy circuitry
Copies windowed circuitry in the active drawing, and includes automatic
update of the component tag.
