The Device status of open or closed on a subnetwork controller feature has no impact for what is downstream of it, as the subnetwork starts at the downstream terminal.  Open or Closed only impact the path through the device. ... View more

When we changed the Lifecyle status, I would not advise adding any values to it.  I would add needed values to the Construction Status domain.  This will keep the lifecycle status field in the network index.  Adding values to it will probably end up moving it out of line. ... View more

As with any change to a model, it could impact your implementation.  Some changes are more important than others.  In this case the Lifecycle Status and Construction Status changes are significant to make those changes.  But, if those are the only changes from the model V2 that you feel are important enough to include, you could just add those changes.   ...

Hi Jugen.  Feel free to keep asking questions.  It helps me add to our documentation.   Why have a Separate Asset Groups for each Voltage Level of Service?  First, is cartoghraphic.  In Most cases, you don't want to draw High Voltage Service when you are zoomed to a scale that draws the majority of the Transmission or Subtransmission system.  You would only want to display services when zoomed in to a large scale.  The same would apply to the other voltage classes as well.  Why not one Service asset group?  I typically would not want to see Low Voltage Services if I am only interested in High or Medium Voltage classes of service.  Also, by using a separate asset group, you can uncheck or check the display very quickly to make them visible or not visible.  We try to a void using an extra attribute for rendering due to the expense.  Also, I can use categories at the asset type level.  So, If I wanted a summary of the kM of Circuit/Subnetwork and wanted to exclude services, I can use a network category to accomplish that.  And because Network Categories use Asset Group and Asset Type, which are imbedded in the network index, this yields the best performance. ...

can you provide the full asset package? ... View more

Hi @RobertKrisher , yes you would need to use code in the SDK similar to ProSnippets Geodatabase · Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk Wiki · GitHub to get the domain assigned to the subtype (asset group) and then you may need to evaluate the asset type if you are using a combined voltage field.  As there is no phase to phase voltage to a single phase line.  This is why in our Electric Foundation model we provide two fields, one for phase to phase voltage and another for phase to neutral voltage.  ...

this goes to modeling technique.  In our electric foundation solution, you will notice that units for Voltage are in Volts, not k or m volts.  This means when you pull back the values, they are always in the same units, volts.  We used the same technique for Volt Amps (VA) and Volta Amps Reactive (VAR).  Otherwise you will need to evaluate the asset group and asset type in your code.  ...
