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

,

Sure, that’s possible, here is how:
image

import clr

clr.AddReference("RevitServices")
import RevitServices
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
from RevitServices.Transactions import TransactionManager
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument

clr.AddReference("RevitAPI")
import Autodesk
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *

clr.AddReference("RevitNodes")
import Revit
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.Elements)
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.GeometryConversion)

if isinstance(IN[0], list):
	connectors = IN[0]
else:
	connectors = [IN[0]]

listout = []

TransactionManager.Instance.EnsureInTransaction(doc)
for conn in connectors:
	ckt = conn.ElectricalSystemType
	
	#Revit 2017 and older:
	#newckt = doc.Create.NewElectricalSystem(conn,ckt)
	
	#Revit 2018 and newer:
	newckt = Electrical.ElectricalSystem.Create(conn,ckt)
	
	listout.append(newckt.ToDSType(False))
	
TransactionManager.Instance.TransactionTaskDone()


OUT = listout

Find the connectors on the elements that you want to use and use those as input for creating the circuits.
