Thanks for the video Rob!
You bet!
Can you make for us video for navis , general information that benefit every electrical engineer? And you to use it .
And thank you for your videos and your efforts , I benefit from the information you provide.
Hi rob, will you please take season on developing power riser diagram for new building, selection of transformer, generator.
Wire path seems to be different from wiring the receptacles.
In fact, when you edit wiring configuration to match what is your idea of wiring of a circuit with several receptacles, Revit wire path is totally different, and it show wire path only for one receptacle (not sure but seems show wire path only for the furthest one).
Since wiring path would be important in case of a wire quantity schedule, any idea on how the wiring path could match wiring in a case with a circuit with more than one receptacle?
Hey there! You are correct, in that wire path is independent of any kind of "wiring" you show - that wiring is really just a graphic representation of what devices are connected together, and has nothing to do with the behind-the-scenes wire path. The wire path appears to just be for a voltage drop calculation - and this is a "feature" that is often criticized. And just like you have noticed, Revit takes the furthest device on a circuit and comes up with a path back to the source, puts the entire load of the circuit at that location, and computes the voltage drop (then upsizes the wire size based upon the criteria that is set up for % loss, etc.). This type of voltage drop calc can actually be useful for a panel feeder or a single piece of equipment. I'd say that it is not Revit's intent for the wire path to provide wire quantity data. However, you could manually edit that wire path to more closely match the actual wiring scheme to approximate the wire/conduit lengths if that is your desire. But great observation - thanks for the feedback! Cheers
