+    """Reorients shell element normals or line element node connectivity.
+
+    APDL Command: ENORM
+
+    Parameters
+    ----------
+    enum: str, int
+        Element number having the normal direction that the
+        reoriented elements are to match.
+
+    Notes
+    -----
+    Reorients shell elements so that their outward normals are
+    consistent with that of a specified element. ENORM can also be
+    used to reorder nodal connectivity of line elements so that
+    their nodal ordering is consistent with that of a specified
+    element.
+
+    For shell elements, the operation reorients the element by
+    reversing and shifting the node connectivity pattern. For
+    example, for a 4-node shell element, the nodes in positions I,
+    J, K and L of the original element are placed in positions J,
+    I, L and K of the reoriented element. All 3-D shell elements
+    in the selected set are considered for reorientation, and no
+    element is reoriented more than once during the
+    operation. Only shell elements adjacent to the lateral (side)
+    faces are considered.
+
+    The command reorients the shell element normals on the same
+    panel as the specified shell element. A panel is the geometry
+    defined by a subset of shell elements bounded by free edges or
+    T-junctions (anywhere three or more shell edges share common
+    nodes).
+
+    Reorientation progresses within the selected set until either
+    of the following conditions is true:
+
+    - The edge of the model is reached.
+
+    - More than two elements (whether selected or unselected) are
+        adjacent to a lateral face.
+
+    In situations where unselected elements might undesirably
+    cause case b to control, consider using ENSYM,0,,0,ALL instead
+    of ENORM.  It is recommended that reoriented elements be
+    displayed and graphically reviewed.
+
+    You cannot use the ENORM command to change the normal
+    direction of any element that has a body or surface load. We
+    recommend that you apply all of your loads only after ensuring
+    that the element normal directions are acceptable.
+
+    Real constant values are not reoriented and may be invalidated
+    by an element reversal.
+
+    Examples
+    --------
+    >>> mapdl.enorm(1)
+
+    """
+    return self.run(f"ENORM,{enum}", **kwargs)
