Hello everyone I do not know if you could advise me, I need to remove some wiring size based on the TemperatureRating and WireMaterial. I know that the way to eliminate them is using the RemoveWireSize method from the TemperatureRatingType class and I asked as an argument a wiring size to be able to Remove them, what I have been able to do so far is to get the list of wiring sizes that I want to eliminate, but I have not been able to unwrapping, please check the code down below thanks.

app = uiapp.Application
wiretype = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
result = []

#TransactionManager.Instance.EnsureInTransaction(doc)

for i in wiretype:
    tempRating = i.TemperatureRating
    wireMaterial = i.WireMaterial
    Wiresizes = tempRating.WireSizes
    for ws in Wiresizes:
        foundWS = [ws.Size, ws.Ampacity, ws.Diameter]
        if ws.Size != "2000":
        	Remsz = ws.GetType()
        	Rem = tempRating.RemoveWireSize(Remsz)
        	result.append(Rem)
#End of region
#TransactionManager.Instance.TransactionTaskDone()
#TransactionManager.Instance.ForceCloseTransaction()

        

OUT = result

Just from reading through the API Iā€™m not sure you need Remsz = ws.GetType(). The RemoveWireSize() method takes a WireSize argument which you should already have with ws.
