When do you use an Assembly instead of a device?

I am curious what the different intentions are between things that are in both devices and assemblies. There is Blow Off in Devices, but there is also Blow Off Assembly in Water Assembly. Another example is hydrants.

They are both points, but capture slightly different data.

Hi @Joshua-Young,

This is an interesting question. Assembly is a container of assets and Device is an operational asset.

The link below provides vocabulary: Utility network vocabulary | ArcGIS Pro documentation

It is the same for Hydrant and Hydrant Assembly.

I hope this helps. Let me know.

Venkat
