I am practicing through Feko_Example_Guide 2023.1. This is the error I am facing :

Unable to mesh port 'WirePort1'. Wires may not be embedded in PEC regions.

It is appears as I practice example A.8.2 Pin-Fed, FDTD Model, page 59. I have tried several ways to solve but I am not able.

Kindly help me out.

Find attached screenshots.

    Hi Frank,

    Hard to say without your model, but could it be that the region of the cuboid is defined as PEC? At least that's what the error message suggests. If so, define the region as a dielectric.

    The attached model should work.

    Note, you can automatically create examples from the ExampleGuide using this macro:
