ComponentNode
Note: There is a newer version of this specification see VEC 2.1.0
A ComponentNode is a node where an electrological component is located. It is a representative for an element in the electric system, e.g. an actuator, a sensor, an ECU. In this way it is quite similar to a NetworkNode and may even reference the corresponding NetworkNode in this case. However, a ComponentNode is more likely to be used as a representative of an inliner or a splice. Moreover, a ComponentNode can define childNodes in order to describe its internal structure.
