I would like to know how to place electrical connector on any face of family using Dynamo. I can place electrical connectors in Revit, but I need to repeat that process thousands of times. We are looking for a way to automate the placement of electrical connector with Dynamo. We would appreciate …

Hi, You can hover your mouse over the inputs to learn how to use the node. You don’t need to provide a Document to the Create Connector node because the node can itself use the current document. You have to convert your face to a reference (with the Surface Reference node for example). [image]

@katsumi1.fukuda , look for topics like these: [image] FamilyInstance.ByPointAndLevel Revit Hello all, I am working on a dynamo script that places family instances at certain locations in a building model using a node called “FamilyInstance.ByPointAndLevel.” For some re…

Hi, You can create electrical connectors on faces in the family editor with the Genius Loci package.

However, I need to create the family in Revit 2019. Is there any way to resolve the issue with the different versions?

Thank you for the information. Unfortunately, the Genius Loci package that is compatible with Revit 2019 does not have a “Create ElectricalConnector” node. For reference, I would like to see an image showing how the “Create ElectricalConnector” node should be connected.

There were many topics to place families as you have shown, but I need to place electrical connectors, not families.

Try installing 2.0.4 and see if that gets you up and running. Considering your using software which has been unsupported for about 1 year and 10 months now, you’re going to be quite handicapped. https://dynamobuilds.com/

My apologies. I tried with Revit2022 and the output result was null. I don’t see any errors, so I don’t know what is wrong. Any information would be appreciated. [1.PNG]
