You can create internal jumpers on a selected component using the Add/Edit Internal Jumper tool. When wire numbers are inserted using AutoCAD Electrical, these internal jumpers are read and wire numbers are assigned accordingly.

If you select to jumper two pins on a component together, an alert displays indicating that internal jumpering will cause a conflict with the existing wire number assignments. If you click Continue, an internal jumper inserts between the two pins on the component; you need to rerun the Insert Wire Numbers tool to reconcile these two different wire numbers now jumpered together. If you click Cancel, the internal jumper data is not inserted.

Note

You can keep jumpers from displaying in Wire From/To reports by placing the jumpers on a layer that contains the substring "JUMPER."

After you select the terminals, press Enter and the dialog displays.
Notice that the selected terminals are highlighted in the list.
Click Add to finish defining the jumper.
