Knowledge Base palette
The project's AHJ and utility design data, inside AutoCAD.
The Knowledge Base tab shows the design data JobEngine tracks for your project's jurisdiction (AHJ) and utility:
- Code cycles — which electrical/fire/building code editions apply
- Stamp requirements — when engineering stamps are required
- Fire setbacks — jurisdiction setback rules
- Interconnection — utility interconnection rules
- Production meter / NEM — metering and net-energy-metering details
Open it with DT_KB or the ribbon toggle .
How it finds your project
The palette resolves the drawing's loaded session to its AHJ and utility automatically — run LOAD_DT first so the drawing knows its project. There's also a search box for ad-hoc lookups by name.
Read-only, honest about gaps
The palette never invents data: if the knowledge base doesn't track a field for your AHJ, it shows nothing rather than a guess. If the service can't be reached, the tab says so and the rest of the plugin keeps working — see Knowledge base unavailable.
