In the previous tutorials we have
learned some of the basic commands. Now
in this tutorial we will create this
electrical single line diagram. If you
are interested in previous set of
tutorials link to complete playlist is
given in the description. We will create
this drawing freehand so we will not be
using any dimension. You can use any
template I will be using acadiso
template
click here scroll down and select acadiso
as we are creating this drawing freehand
therefore unit is not very important
but still I will show what is my setting
to check the unit type UN Enter
I am using Length type as decimal precision is four digit angle type is decimal
degree precision is zero digit and
insertion scale is millimeter click on
OK
then I have kept here object snap
tracking on then object snap is also on
if you click on the arrow near the
object snap then I have activated
endpoint midpoint center quadrant
intersection and extension object
snaps
so in this drawing at first we will
create this horizontal line and this
vertical line. To create line click on
line give the first point for creating
straight line make Ortho ON click here
then give the second point to come out
of the line command press ENTER then to
repeat the last command press ENTER then
give first point give second point enter
zoom it
and pan it
then I will create this rectangle with
this horizontal two lines click on
Rectangle give the first point take your
cursor away and click then zoom it then
we will create one horizontal line for
that again click on Line and to locate
this point just take your cursor to the
endpoint don't click there we will track
that point without clicking take your
cursor below so it is tracking that
point then click then again take your
cursor to this endpoint and take your
cursor below and click. Press Enter
now I want to create line at the same
distance from below so what I will do I
will Mirror this line click on Mirror
select this line enter then first point
of mirror line will be the midpoint of
this vertical line click there take your
cursor away now ensure that your line is
straight then click and erase source object No
now this shape is ready then we will
move it and place it here
click here on Move select object click
outside in empty space and create window
like this so everything inside this
window will be selected click enter take
your cursor to this midpoint this will
be our base point click there then this
end point will be our second point click
there so it has been placed
then one vertical line circle and again
one vertical line
click on Line take your cursor to this
midpoint take your cursor below and
click enter then we need one circle now
for circle we will use two point method
so that it will be easy to create circle
at this position click on this arrow and
click on two point then first point of
our circle will be this end point click
there then take your cursor below and
click then we need one vertical line
click on line take your cursor to this
quadrant click there take your cursor
below and click
then we need one small horizontal line
click one more point press enter
then next is to create these arcs now
there are six arcs at first we will
create one arc
for this arc we will use this Start
Center End method click on it give the
start point start point will be this end
point then you will have to specify the
center so I will take this point as a
center click there
then take your cursor horizontal and
click this arc is ready
then we want these arcs to be six
numbers so for that we will use array
command click on rectangular array then
select this arc enter
then we want single-row then we will
convert these rows as one enter take your
cursor below then it will update and we
want number of columns to the six enter
and then we want these arcs to be
connecting so for that what we will do
we will click on this arrow and take
your cursor until it touches the
previous arc then click and escape
and again horizontal line and same shape
so we will copy this at first we will
copy this line click on copy select this
line enter and base point will be this
end point and second point will be the
endpoint of this arc enter
then again press ENTER then select all
these objects for this we can use
crossing window for that click on the
right side and take your cursor on the
left side so this is a crossing window
the color of this window is green and it
will select all the objects within the
window and the objects crossed by this
window click then enter then base point
will be this endpoint and second point
will be this endpoint press enter
actually we want this gap to be more so
what we can do we can increase the scale
of these arcs or we can also reduce this
length for that we will stretch this
object
click on stretch for this crossing
window is required click on the right
side take your cursor above select all the
object except these lines because we
want to change the length of these lines
so we will be selecting these lines
partially not completely enter give the
base point take your cursor above and
click
then zoom it then we want to increase
this gap we will increase the scale of
these arcs for that click on scale then select this
arc enter then give the base point this
endpoint will be the base point and we
will increase the scale by 1.3 enter
then we will move this portion click on
Move select this object enter then
select this point as a base point and
give this point as a second point now it
is looking proper as per our drawing then
next will be to create this bottom
portion so what we can do we can mirror
this object for that click on mirror
select object enter then your first
point of mirror line I want some gap
between these two objects so what I will
do I will keep some distance below and
click here and take your cursor on the
right side and click and erase source
objects no
then next is this line and these four
circles
click on Line
click here on the quadrant point take
your cursor below and click press enter
and we will copy this circle click on
copy select this circle enter for base point select this endpoint and select
this endpoint then we want one more
below take it below and click enter
then we will copy these two again click
on copy select these both circles enter
we will give base point in the empty
space click there and take your cursor
on the right side and click enter
then to create these lines again click
on Line and first point will be this
quadrant point click there and this
quadrant enter enter this mid point take
your cursor above and click and zoom minus
then same is required here we will copy
it click on copy select object enter
give the base point and give second
point Enter then one horizontal line
click on line click on this quadrant
point and this quadrant
point press Enter
so this is ready then we want one more
horizontal line and this shape on upper
side
click on Line click on this quadrant
point take your cursor ahead and click
press ENTER then copy select this object
enter then we need this quadrant point
click on this quadrant and click on this
endpoint press Enter
the next is this vertical line and
horizontal line
click on the line click on this quadrant
point take your cursor below take your
cursor on the right side and click and
enter then this horizontal line
and again enter click on this midpoint
take your cursor ahead and click and
enter then copy this shape for that click
on copy select object enter
then base point will be this quadrant
point click there and second point will
be this end point click there enter
and next is one circle here and here and
here also at first we will create this
line and then we will copy this circle
click on line then click on this
quadrant point then track this point
take your cursor above and click and
enter then we will copy this circle
click on copy select this circle enter
select this quadrant point and click on
this end point same way click here on
the end point enter so both circles are
created then we need one vertical line
click on line click on this quadrant and
this quadrant enter enter click on this
quadrant and we don't want this midpoint
because it will create inclined lines so
what we will do we will just track this
midpoint take our cursor below and click
then only it will create this line as a
straight if you connect it to the
midpoint it will create inclined line
because length of these both lines is
different therefore their midpoints are
not matching
then one circle and two horizontal lines
click on copy select the circle enter
give this as a base point take your
cursor above and click and enter then
create horizontal lines click on line
click here take your cursor on this side
and click enter to ensure that this line
is at midpoint what we will do we will
move this line click on Move select this
object enter then select midpoint as a
base point and click on this
intersection point then copy this line
we can also type CO for copy Enter select
this object enter give the base point
take your cursor below and enter then
Trim the unwanted portion here is the
trim command click on it and press Enter
then remove the unwanted objects press
Enter Zoom Minus
so this portion is also ready then next
is horizontal line then circle one more
horizontal line and two circles
click on Line
then click on this quadrant point take
your cursor ahead and click enter then
click on this two points circle give
this as the first point take your cursor
ahead and click then again line click on
the quadrant point take it ahead and
click and enter then we will copy this
circle copy select the circle enter then
give this end point as a base point and
this point as a second point and we need
one more circle here so click here also
enter then one connecting line click on
line
then this quadrant to this quadrant
Enter
then there are two vertical lines and
one inclined line we can create this
complete line
click on line click on the quadrant take
your cursor ahead and click and enter
and copy the circle click on copy click
the circle enter select this quadrant
and click here on the endpoint and enter
and create one vertical line give first
point give second point Enter then copy
this line type CO enter select this
line enter give the base point take your
cursor ahead and click enter to
match the midpoint click on Move select
these both objects enter then select
this middle point and put it on the
intersection point and we want this at
the center of this line also so what we
will do again click on move select these
both the objects enter then to catch the
midpoint between these two points press
shift and right click and select mid
between two points then click on this
point and this point so it will locate
the midpoint then click on this mid
point so it is at the center and we want
one inclined line click on line
then track this endpoint take it ahead
click make ortho off for inclined line
then track this end point and click and
enter so this is also ready
the next is vertical line and we will
connect back to this circle click on line
and click on this quadrant point then
track this quadrant point get back to
your original position make ortho on and
click and again click on this quadrant
point Enter
so this shape is ready
now there is bigger spacing so we can
stretch it to reduce the size so just
click on stretch give the first point give
the second point for crossing window
enter we will specify this point here
and take your cursor on this side and
click again enter
again crossing window enter then take it
inside and click now it is looking
proper same way if you want you can
further reduce the size so this complete
portion is ready then next will be to
create this portion we will create one
portion and we will copy it so at first
we will create one vertical line and
these two circles and this arc
click on Line give the first point take
your cursor below and click and enter we
will copy these two circles click on
copy select these two circles enter
select the end point as a base point
then click on this endpoint enter then
we will move this circle below click on
move select the circle enter give the
base point take your cursor below and
click then we will create one arc here
for that click on this arrow below the
arc and select this 3 point method
then we want point somewhere here for
that press shift and right click and select
nearest then click here make ortho off
then other point will be somewhere here
then again shift plus right click and
select nearest and it will be somewhere
here click there
so hear this shape is ready
then one vertical line and two circles
or we want this shape so what we will do
we will copy this
click on copy select this object enter
select this quadrant as a base point
take your cursor on this side just track
this quadrant point take your cursor
below and click and then create one line
click on line then click on this
quadrant point and this quadrant press
Enter
then one line then again circle and one
line and this shape
then you can also type L for line enter
then click on the quadrant take your
cursor below and click enter copy the
circle type CO
enter select this circle enter select this
end point and this end point enter
then one more line and this shape
type L enter click on the quadrant take
your cursor below and click enter
then to create this shape we will copy
this circle click on copy click the
circle enter click on this quadrant
point click on this end point again we
will need one more click on this
quadrant enter and zoom it
then take the line command suppose we'll
give one point somewhere here and we
will make this line tangent to this
circle for tangent
press shift right click and select
tangent and click on the circle enter
same way on this side again line give
point here then Shift + right click
click on tangent and click on this
circle enter
then we want the same shape on the
opposite side like this so we'll mirror
this click on mirror select this line
and circle enter then our mirror line
will be starting from this quadrant take
your cursor on the right side make ortho
on and click and click on no then
trim the unwanted portion for that type
TR enter enter
then select objects to be removed so
here this shape is created
then next is this vertical line and
horizontal line
click on Line click on this quadrant
point take your cursor below take your
cursor on the right side and click and
enter
then click on this two points circle give
first point then click second
then we want this middle at the quadrant
of this circle so we'll copy this
click on copy select this object enter
then what we will do we need to locate a
base point in line with this quadrant so
take your cursor to this quadrant track
this point and click and click enter
then trim it type TR enter enter and
click to remove enter then we will copy
this line copy select this object enter
then take this point as the base point
click on this quadrant enter then again
we will copy this click on copy select
this object enter select this as a base
point and this as the second point and
enter
and we want these lines to be hidden for
that take your cursor to properties then
click here on bylayer in linetype then
click on other
and click on load then scroll it down
and select this hidden okay and okay
then select these lines
and take your cursor to properties click
here and click on hidden and escape
I want larger gaps for that type
LTS enter and increase the scale to 3 so
it will be properly visible now this
shape is ready then we need to move it
to place near this previous object
so click on move select this object
enter give this point as a base point
make ortho off and I want it here we will
pan it and see it
okay so we'll place it like this
Actually we need to match this line with
this circle that means this circle so
what we will do we will stretch this
complete object above to match with this
line
so for that click on stretch then click
outside create crossing window and click
enter then click on the quadrant point
take your cursor up above and we want
straight lines so click on ortho mode on
and what we will do will press shift and
right click and click on perpendicular
so it will be perfect now it is passing
through that point so it is looking
proper then we don't want remaining line
so we can trim it
type TR enter then here we will give
this circle as a boundary line enter and
click on this line and this line enter
then to create one arc here for that
click here and click on start center end
our start point will be track this end
point take your cursor below then center
point will be this end point now I want
arc on the opposite side for that press
Ctrl and take your cursor above and
click then trim this line type TR enter
enter and click enter
then create one vertical line click on
line click on this endpoint take your
cursor above and click then create one
horizontal line so you need to cross
this line so click here then click below
click this quadrant and click and enter
then we want one arc here again click on
the start center end give this point as
the start point to catch this point you
can track this intersection point click
this point as a center point and take
your cursor ahead and click then trim TR
enter enter and click enter so this
lines is also ready
and we can stretch this portion below type
S for stretch enter give the crossing window enter give the base point take it
below and click
and last will be to place the text
Zoom here then for text click here on
multi-line text
then give first point create small
rectangle and click then type there L1
and increase the size we will make it
10 enter at first we need to select
this text and increase the size to 10
enter click outside now it is still
small double click select it and make it
around 35 enter click outside now it is
proper we will copy it click on copy
select this text enter give the end
point as a base point and click on this
next endpoint enter then make it L2
double click on it select this 1 make
it 2 click outside again take your
cursor on this text once it gets
highlighted then you will have to double
click then change the text click outside
then here copy all of them click on copy
select all the text enter give this as a
point base point then take it below and
click enter move it ahead click on
Move select this text enter give the base point
take it ahead and click
so here we will give T1 T2 T3 double
click make it T1 T2 and T3
then we need to move this ahead click on
move select this text enter give the
base point take it away and click
then next is this text and this M for that
we will copy this copy select this
object enter then click inside and we
want one here Ortho OFF we can also make
ortho OFF by pressing F8 then here here here
and here then one is here one is here
one is here and one is here enter then
here is RSTOP double click
select it RSTOP click outside
then STOP START double click STOP
double click select it START and double
click select RSTART
click outside then I want size of this
text to be smaller for that select all
of this text
then type PR for properties enter then
here we will make the text height to be
30 enter and escape and click Escape
then move this text M enter select this
text enter give the base point give the
second point place it at correct
position we can enter to repeat the move
command enter select object enter give
base point give the second point same way here enter select this object enter give the
base point give the second point
so this text is also done here we have
to write M just double-click and type
M then select this text make it bold
and increase the size to 45 enter click
outside then move it type M enter select
this object enter and place it so I
think this is completely ready
so that's all in the next lecture we
will learn next set of commands then we
will solve some exercises so thanks for
watching we will stop here
