Does anyone know the meaning/difference between all electrical type in Altium:
- open collector
- passive
- open emitter
- HZ

And when to use them?

It is used for Electrical Rule Checking.

In the schematic look at "Project" -> "Project Options.." then go to "Connection Matrix".

There you can define different error levels for every connection type.
For example generate a warning if you connect an output pin to an open collector pin.
