WendyatArtform Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 If I can't find a Chief native backup generator symbol, am I missing something? If there is one, can somebody point me to it por favor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy1 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Wendy, I've had these home generators for several years. Don't know if it will help. Home Generators.calibz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Tommy's offering looks fine, the last time I needed a generator symbol, I just searched 3D Warehouse for one. That is the first place I look after checking current content resources. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy1 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I believe I got those from 3D Warehouse several years ago. Not sure though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief_Content Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 There are 3 Generators in the Home Essentials No.1 Catalog... maybe one of them is similar to what you have in mind? https://3dlibrary.chiefarchitect.com/index.php?r=site/detail/902 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electromen Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 A whole house generator would also include an automatic transfer switch. This could be outside or inside and would also be the main circuit breaker for the house. You can simply make a note/callout or include a cad symbol for location. Inside is the prefer location.

WendyatArtform Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 Silly me, I saw "supplies" and "interior accessories" with an interior picture and saw no reason to think what I needed would be here - a generator, which is exterior electrical equipment. I also searched library and library download area for "generator" - nada. So.... not so sure this library is packaged/labeled to indicate what it really is?

country Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 What name would find a generator in the library? I find the search engine in Chief's library very poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generator works for me but only after downloading and installing the Home Essentials No.1 Emergency Supplies catalog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Quote I find the search engine in Chief's library very poor. Are you basing that opinion on your experiences with prior versions or with X9? We actually improved the library search engine for X9. See notes below from the What's New in X9 documentation: - Library Search Improvements. Enhanced search algorithm more reliably finds results by prioritizing results through better word matching and includes folders in search results; use quotes to search for specific phrases or words. If you are still having problems finding what you want in X9, you should let us know by reporting these problems to our tech support team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
