Rob again thank you so much for all this content. I watched all 10 of the videos. Very well done. I would recommend this channel for anybody that wants to learn about revit.
Very clear video. Nothing missing on how it's done and also concepts are explained. I think it's an American characteristic to get straight to the point of things. Thumb up.
Thank you so much! You have the most resourcefull learning material i ve found online. Question: Does anyone knows if i can attend autodesk certification exam with a cracked Revit version?
Hi Rob, thanks for your very comprehensive and clear tutorial! I am new to REVIT and find this series extremely helpful!!! I have trouble connecting receptacles to panel P1... at some point, it shows an error message "You can't connect to panel P1 because there aren't enough slots and the Feed Through Lugs is unchecked." Could you please suggest what the issue is and how to fix it?
Hi there! I'm so glad you are finding my tutorial helpful, and I wish you much luck in your Revit learning! As far as your error message, it sounds to me like you have run out of circuits in that panel P1. If you click on the panel, in the Properties dialog box down under the "Electrical Circuiting" header , the 2nd parameter is "Max Number of Single Pole Breakers" - you may need to increase this to something like 30 or even 42. Let me know if this does not fix your issue! And appreciate your support and feedback!
Hey there Uriel. A few things to check - make sure in the Visibility/Graphics Overrides that you have the "electrical fixtures" category checked. Also make sure in your floor plan view that the section "boundaries" are including the wall that your receptacle is on (click on the section symbol line and adjust the blue lines with the little arrows). If you still have issues, let me know and we will get it resolved!
@@ElectricRob Hi Rob thanks !! your attention is appreciated, here is the configuration of the duplex contact height. But all right in this topic. Now I can not select fornitures in the revit link all is blue why? 1:31:54
If you just click on the furniture, you will indeed select the entire link (turns blue, as you have noticed). However, if you hover your cursor over the furniture, then use TAB, it will eventually just highlight that furniture family and you can then click on it to select it separately.
Hello I'm wondering, is this video helpful for my understanding of designing and implementing a complete electrical system for buildings. Additionally, does Revit provide functionality for performing voltage drop calculations, wire sizing, and other electrical design tasks? Thanks.
Hey there. These "Revit" videos assume that the student is already up to speed with actual electrical design, and just show how to model their designs within the software. However, Revit's application of voltage drop calcs and wire sizing are not great, which I have mentioned in a few videos. I should probably do a video strictly dealing with those "features". But, Revit is very powerful when it comes to load calculations, since it allows classification of individual loads by type and assigning specific NEC demand factors, as well as adding loads per "bus", thus eliminating the need for any external spreadsheet-type load summaries.
Hi Rob, your videos are very helpful. Thank you for uploading them. When I place receptacles I do not have 'load classufication' under 'electrical' like you at 1:19:07 Do you know what could be the problem?
Hi there Jule - appreciate the feedback! Sorry to hear about your receptacle issue! It really all comes down to the family - if you don't have the proper family loaded, you might have missing parameters. If you are using an "architectural" receptacle (like the floor receptacle I cover at 3:40:40) you will be missing things like that "load classification". Now you can download an "MEP version" of the receptacle, or you can even edit the family as I show, to get the proper electrical connector installed and also "map" or "associate" the proper parameters so you can get to them in your model. I also cover the different types of families in this video ruclips.net/video/xE4ZM9bNwpw/видео.html - specifically the "Architectural" versions at 3:41 if you want to check that out. Hope this helps!
Hey there! You bring up a great point - the best way to learn is to do! This project was specifically accomplished with publicly available arch model and electrical families so that you can download and follow along. I show in the video where to download the sample architectural model, as well as downloading the electrical families from the Autodesk cloud. I show at the beginning of the video going to help.autodesk.com for the arch model. And at timestamp 1:26:50 I show the "Load Autodesk Family from Cloud" tool for the electrical families. Hope this helps, and good luck with your practicing!

Hey, would I be able to follow along and complete these projects with Revit LT?
@@a1mb0tz unfortunately no - looks like Revit LT does NOT contain any MEP features, per this list www.autodesk.com/products/revit/compare. Sorry :(

Appreciate your feedback - glad you enjoyed it!
Wonderful tutorial!! Very useful for me!
Glad to hear it was helpful! Appreciate your feedback!
Very well done ElectricRob! I use this video as my ready reference for electrical design. It is really useful when my teammates go on vacation 👍
Thank you so much! You have the most resourcefull learning material i ve found online.
Question: Does anyone knows if i can attend autodesk certification exam with a cracked Revit version?
Thank you Rob, Your tutorial was by far the best tutorial i have referred. Thank you and keep sharing your knowledge.🙏
Thanks and glad you enjoyed it! I have a new project series starting with episode 1 here! ruclips.net/video/QWpFmpQU-N8/видео.html
Great video with clear explanation, Thank you !!!
Thanks for the feedback! So glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you Rob! Very helpful and wel structured video
Glad it's helpful - thought having all 10 episodes in one video could be handy as well as individual videos.

@@ElectricRob Hi Rob, thanks for the timely reply. I followed your instructions and the problem is fixed : ) Really appreciate your help!
So glad that worked. You can also create a panel schedule for P1 and look at that - will show you how full the panel is.

@ElectricRob thanks for providing detailed answer.
I'm a electrical foreman trying to get into this where do you suggest I start
This is very Helpful. thanks Rob
I'm so glad you found it helpful!
thanks for this kind of video , i learned a lot...
Very welcome - glad it was helpful!

Thank very much for this tutorial.
Very welcome George - hope you learned something!
Very good explanation
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Rob🎉
My pleasure!
please can you share the materials (revit file and arch link ) so we can practice along with you from scratch.

will be great if 2 more series included using same sample model i.e. Mechanical and Plumbing, perhaps MEP Guy (Ryan, Tyler) can help🙂
Hah! I'll have to let them know!
I need some help mr rob!! Can you
Merci
Very welcome!
