Working with Templates
In AutoCAD Electrical, you can use templates (*.dwt files) to create drawings. 
Predefined templates, which contain settings for various drawings, such as 
acad.dwt or ACAD_ELECTRICAL.dwt, are supplied with AutoCAD Electrical. 
You can create your own templates, or use any drawing as a template. When 
you use a drawing as a template, the settings in that drawing are used in the 
new drawing.
