Power ports can be connected to pins or wires and allow you to indicate a power source.
Power Port
Net name
Specify the port name. The name of the power port identifies the connection or gives its name to the connection. If in a connection there are two power ports with different names, only one can identify the connection, in the other must be activated the option Net subordinate.
Connections whose name is determined by a power port are always valid globally or are valid in all pages of the project.
