Connect Data Device to a Panel

[bvs1982]

Is there a way to connect newly placed Data Devices to Panels?
If so can someone point me in the right direction?

NB
The Data Device Families have multiple Connectors.

PS
I am not an MEP engineer.

Hi @bvs1982 RIE package have a lot of nodes for electric…mepover and openmep have some too

[bvs1982]

I have MEPover. I’ll have a look at RIE too.
I guess MEPover doesn’t have all the nodes for the needed task.

[sovitek]

Yes think RIE is the way

[bvs1982]

Any idea if RIE will be updated? Latest is from 2021(?).

[sovitek]

no not sure…it doesnt work ?

[bvs1982]

It does work, but i was more wondering for how long it (the nodes) will stay working because we work with Revit 2022 and probably will move to Revit 2023 soon.

Still struggling.

Found these two topics but they didn’t help me much yet…
I think i overlook something because of MEP terminology (Panel / Circuit / System / Data) /
miss a step.

Python; Create new circuit in panel and assign electrical elements to circuit

Can you send me the graph and the family you connect, which works for you?

Creating an electrical circuit to electrical elements

Thanks @cgartland for your reply, I’m not sure on the method in posting code, never posted it before, so apologies if it’s in the wrong format. Import clr clr.AddReference(‘ProtoGeometry’) from Autodesk.DesignScript.Geometry import * clr.AddReference(‘RevitServices’) import RevitServices from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager from RevitServices.Transactions import TransactionManager from System.Collections.Generic import * clr.AddReference(‘RevitNodes’) import Revit clr…

EDIT
Made some progress. Found out the Python in the first link is for PowerCircuits.
We have Data Devices (=DataCircuits?).
I think (part) of the solution is editing the Python from the first node(?).

Made some more progress.

@bvs1982

We need something similar but for Data Devices.
Can the Python be edited in such way it works for Data Devices (Like PowerCircuit to Data?).

The answer to this is yes.
Problem now is that every Family got multiple Connectors and each Connector needs a different
Circuit Number.

The Python creates ONE ElectricalSystem (=Circuit?) for ALL the connectors as i understand it.
But i need ONE ElectricalStem for EACH connector.
In example: If i have 3 Families with 4 Connectors each i need (to create) 12 ElectricalSystems(?).
