Bill of Materials Library
The costs for all equipment are set in the Design library. To open the library, while in the Database Edit focus, click File > Open Library. Select the Stdlib.mdb file or your custom library. The Generic design template is found in the section Design > US > Generic.
Under the Motors, Conductor Costing, Protective Equipment, Bus Equipment, and Transformers tabs are columns to enter unit costs or costs per foot. Typical equipment costs have been entered for you in the Generic library. As you finish your design and start looking into purchasing equipment, you will want to replace these estimated costs with actual equipment costs. Conductor and conduit costs are entered into the library as cost per foot. The program then calculates the total conductor or conduit cost by multiplying the conductor length by the cost per foot.
