Context A spare circuit does not need to be present as a symbol in the model drawing; it can be created directly via the installation overview.
Workflow
  1. Open one of the electrical palettes (for example, Lighting).
  2. Click on the 'Tools' tab.
  3. Open the 'Manage installation' function (the button on the first row, first column).
  4. Choose whether the current drawing should be read, or an external drawing or export extraction file.
  5. The panel schedule overview will now open and display the present panels and circuits.
  6. Select a panel, right-click it, and choose 'Add' -> '(sub)circuit'.
  7. Name the circuit and change the selection next to 'Type:' to 'Reserve' (Spare).
  8. Tip: Moving items in the overview is possible by clicking and holding a circuit and dragging it to the desired position.
