Electrical Cable Connectivity Input (.rec file)

This file is read as parentheses-contained expressions. So in this file, unlike other files, lines may include RETURN or LINEFEED at any place a space is legal.

Cable connectivity is very similar to pipeline connectivity, but is much more restricted in terms of possible endpoints and there are no inline components. The electrical cable connectivity file (.rec file) using the following format:

(<cable-name> <origin> <terminus>)

The quotation marks ( " ) are used around element names so that numeric names are read as a string and not as a number.

<cable name> is the unique name for the cable. This name is the name given to the cable in the cable (.rel) file.
<origin> describes the connection at one end of the cable.
Examples of <origin>:
- A single named nozzle: "10-V-101/B"
  if a nozzle name is not know, your can specify only the equipment name.
- A boundary component: "OPC-4/MS"
```
<origin> ::= <pipeline end>
```
```
<pipeline end> ::= <nozzle name> | <boundary element name>
```
<terminus> describes the connections at the other end of the pipeline. The <terminus> uses the same format as the <origin> to describe its elements.
