The identifier for the tool. You can select from the list, or click Tools to create a new tool. See Edit Tools for more information.

This represents a type of tool.

The facility where the tool point of connection exists. This information comes from the tool. See Edit Tools for more information. Facilities are set up under Tools > Options > Facilities.

The functional area where the tool point of connection exists. This information comes from the tool. See Edit Tools for more information.

The bay where the tool point of connection exists. This information comes from the tool. See Edit Tools for more information.

The reference number for the point of connection. This information appears on the one-line.

Base kV for the tool point of connection. Note that the tool point of connection must have a kV entered before equipment can be connected to it. Anything less than 1 kV is considered low voltage, anything 1 kV or more is high voltage.

The base kV displays the highest voltage between the current carrying conductors. For 3-phase or line-to-line connected single-phase equipment, the base kV is the line-to-line (LL) voltage. For line-to-neutral (LN) connected single-phase equipment, the base kV is the line-to-neutral voltage.

The list of base kV values comes from the table in Tools > Options > System. You can choose from the list or manually type in a value.

The base kV is limited to 1 kV or less.

The phase type for this item:

• 3PH: 3 phase
• 1PH: 1 phase

The service for this item.

• For three phase, the options are 3PH-3W (3-phase, 3-wire) or 3-PH-4W (3-phase, 4-wire).
• For single phase, the only option is 1PH-2W (1-phase, 2 wire).

When this check box is selected, the tool point of connection cannot be auto-sized.
