Another question: Have you ever checked revit’s math on panel schedules? I’m a bit wary on it. And have you gotten load classification summaries to show up reliably on the bottom of panel schedules? I’ve found that Revit likes to leave load classifications out unless you explicitly list which ones you’re using, which is a big time hassle

[@KowabungaStudios]

You do have to be diligent as to associating the loads correctly, but the math is correct when done properly

Hey nice video. A couple of questions for you: has Revit enabled switch groups to have two switches per switch group to enable 3 way switching. And how do you annotate your switches? Do you tag them?

[@KowabungaStudios]

To my knowlesge Revit doesn't allow 2 switch groups. I tag my switches and use the switch annotation to do so, which carries over to the fixture as well.

I see the demand factor gets applied to the individual panelboards. Does it also get applied to the over all system. Ex you have 10 receptacle panelboards. Does it take 100% of the first 10K of receptacle load of the total sum of the 10 panelboards and 50% of remaining receptacle loads?

[@KowabungaStudios]

Yes, it will apply it to the system as a whole

[@EmmanuelOnuche]

The power factor on panel board is not applied on the load calculation.
