Draw Homerun Only

The Draw Homerun Only command is used to draw the homerun for a circuit without drawing loops. This command can be used to move the homerun from one device to another without affecting the loops that are already inserted on the drawing.

To draw a homerun only without drawing the loops associated with the circuit, go to
Ribbon: DM Electrical→Circuiting and Homeruns→  Draw Homerun Only
Pulldown Menu: DM Electrical→Circuiting and Homeruns→Draw Homerun Only

You will be prompted to select the device from which to draw the homerun.

You cannot combine circuits that use different size wires. The neutral will be shared based upon the 🔘 Share Neutral on Combined Homeruns setting. See the Set Looping Options section for more information.

You will then be prompted to specify the end point for the homerun.
