possibility to set container and structure role to an asset type

Hi,

is there a way to set both association role to an asset type, especially structure boundaries ?

Example :

A distribution substation is a container obviously, but I want to structurally attach a default light (don't know the name in English) like this :

The light is not contained in the station, but really attach to the wall.

Thanks

I would assume your wall is defined as an asset type in the structure boundary class. Structure Boundary asset types can be assigned the container role, but not be assigned the structure role.

Feature restrictions—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation

you could create a point that is the wall, attach the device to the wall point and the wall point could be contained in the structure boundary wall.
