Working with saved circuits

Working with saved circuits

- [Instructor] We're staying in our DEMO11.dwg file in our WDDEMO project. Now you remember in the previous video, we WBlocked out a circuit that we might want to reuse, and we called it CIRCUIT1.dwg. And we saved that CIRCUIT1.dwg into our Demo project folder. So you saw me go through that in the last video. So what we're going to do in this video is reuse a saved WBlocked circuit. It's very quick and easy to do. And what I love about it is it's just one of those things that automates the design process in the AutoCAD Electrical Toolset. Because I've created a circuit, I don't want to have to create it again. So I WBlock it and just reuse it in an existing drawing or a new drawing. We're going to use an existing drawing, our DEMO11.dwg file. And we're going to reuse that CIRCUIT1.dwg. So what I'm going to do is zoom out slightly, like so, so I can still see my three-phase ladder here and my existing circuit here with our…
