Sets options for applying profiles to loads and converting equipment.

Enable equipment profile

Makes all the controls on this tab available. This check box is used for security to prevent you from applying a profile in error.

Number of items to create

This option is available only when you select the folder for the item you require prior to selecting Apply Options, and after you select Enable equipment profile. It allows you to specify the number of new items to create in the Electrical Index in accordance with the profile you select.

Equipment type

Displays the equipment type to which you apply the profile corresponding to the item or folder you have selected. Examples of equipment types are motors and cables.

Profile name

Displays the default profile for the appropriate equipment class, as defined in the Equipment Profile Properties dialog. When you select a folder to create new items in batch mode using the profile, the label appears as Create item based on profile. Select Find to navigate to a different profile.

Apply to

Enables you to select the rule that the software implements when applying the profile. The options are:

All items

Applies the profile to all the selected items.

Items with no profile

Applies the profile only to items without an existing profile. Use this option to add a profile only to new items among the items that you selected.

Items with a different profile from the selection

Changes the profile of the selected items to the current profile. Use this option to add a profile to items with a modified profile definition.

Items with the same profile as the selection

Updates an existing profile for the selected items.

Populate empty item properties

Select this check box to update only those item properties that contain null data. The software does not overwrite any data that is not null.
Clear the check box to leave existing values of the item properties as they are, regardless of whether they contain null or not null values.

  • If you modify the components of a typical circuit that already has a reference from an item, the software does not update the change in the reference until you next apply a typical circuit or a profile to the item.

  • When an item has associated power cables, and you connect the item to a circuit by applying a profile with a typical circuit, if there is more than one cable, the software associates the free ends of all the power cables with the circuit.

  • If you apply a profile that contains a motor with a space heater to a plant motor without a space heater, the software adds a heater to the plant motor.

  • If the item that you are applying a profile to is connected to a feeder circuit, the system replaces the circuit so that it matches the applied typical circuit as specified in the profile.

  • If the item is connected to feeder equipment other than a circuit (such as a variable frequency drive, a transformer, or a battery bank), the software does not apply the profile.
