18.39 WireElementSpecification
A WireElementSpecification is the basic element to describe a wire in the VEC. A WireElementSpecification can be atomic or composed recursively out of other WireElementSpecifications. A WireElementSpecification can reference an InsulationSpecification, if it has an insulation, a CoreSpecification, if it has a core or a WireGroupSpecification if it is a grouping of other WireElementSpecifications in the Wire (e.g. a multi-core wire with twisted pairs).
The structure is defined in Table 126.
| VEC Name | Type | Description | Allow Subtypes |
|---|---|---|---|
| WireElementSpecification | structure | Subtype of 1:Specification defined in VEC | |
OutsideDiameter | NumericalValue | Specifies the outside diameter of the WireElement. A WireElementSpecification is the basic element to describe a wire in the VEC. A WireElementSpecification can be atomic or composed recursively out of other WireElementSpecifications. A WireElementSpecification can reference an InsulationSpecification, if it has an insulation, a CoreSpecification, if it has a core or a WireGroupSpecification if it is a grouping of other WireElementSpecifications in the Wire (e.g. a multi-core wire with twisted pairs). | False |
ConductorSpecification | ConductorSpecification | If the WireElement has a core then the specification of the core is referenced here. A WireElementSpecification is the basic element to describe a wire in the VEC. A WireElementSpecification can be atomic or composed recursively out of other WireElementSpecifications. A WireElementSpecification can reference an InsulationSpecification, if it has an insulation, a CoreSpecification, if it has a core or a WireGroupSpecification if it is a grouping of other WireElementSpecifications in the Wire (e.g. a multi-core wire with twisted pairs). | False |
InsulationSpecification | InsulationSpecification | If the WireElement has an insulation then the specification of the insulation is referenced here. A WireElementSpecification is the basic element to describe a wire in the VEC. A WireElementSpecification can be atomic or composed recursively out of other WireElementSpecifications. A WireElementSpecification can reference an InsulationSpecification, if it has an insulation, a CoreSpecification, if it has a core or a WireGroupSpecification if it is a grouping of other WireElementSpecifications in the Wire (e.g. a multi-core wire with twisted pairs). | False |
