2D block management
I had this problem a couple of years ago and could not find an answer. I open the CAD Block Management box on a new file with no drawing in it. The Cad Block Management box shows all kinds of electrical blocks and I cannot delete them. In fact when I select the libary object the wrong 2D object is associated with it. Is this a bug? Has a patch been sent out? How do I correct this? Thanks for any help. I have 5x

Edit> Default Settings> Electrical
You can change your defaults for the plan to be whatever you want and the associated CAD Blocks change based on what you select.
You can also change the CAD Block associated with a symbol - http://www.chiefarchitect.com/suppor...?faqNumber=805Chief Architect Premier X5

Jere:
they are hard-coded into Chief
I think they are assigned to the various electrical tools
so when the tool is used it knows which block to use
