Python script to populate line segment attribute in Pole Asset

I want to populate our electric line segment attributes in HV Conductor layer using python script. Can you please demonstrate how it can be done. I also need tip on Python books to read.

Why a python script... especially if you know little about it.

Everyone will have an opinion on what is best. It might be useful for you to list what titles you have seen online and what ESRI publications you are considering. In any event, Python 3 is what you should be learning since it is largely back-portable, but python 2.x is terminal very soon

Hi Dan,

Thank you for your advice and input.

Currently, the company I am working for is using ArcGIS with Python 2.7. We are in the process of using python to automate some of our utilities asset task. Can you please refer me to ESRI publication on electric utilities workflow.

Regards,

Jeremiah.
