# CableCoaxialCrossSection

A coaxial cable cross section.

## Example

application = cf.Application.GetInstance()

-- Add a coaxial cross section

project.Definitions.Media.PerfectElectricConductor,
0.001,
project.Definitions.Media.Dielectric:Item("Insulation"),
0.001,
project.Definitions.Cables.Shields["CableShield1"])

coaxial.CoreInsulatingLayers[1].Thickness = 0.002

## Inheritance

The CableCoaxialCrossSection object is derived from the CableCrossSection object.

## Usage locations

The CableCoaxialCrossSection object can be accessed from the following locations:

## Method List

Delete ()
Deletes the entity.
Duplicate ()
Duplicates the entity. (Returns a Object object.)
GetProperties ()
Returns a table of properties representing the state of the object. The properties table can be used with the SetProperties method to change multiple properties of the object in one step. (Returns a table object.)
SetProperties (properties Object)
Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.

## Static Function List

GetDefaultProperties ()
Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)
