Quick answer: Not currently possible.
We report the Number of Wires in our Tags, so for 5W elements I have created a separate Tag Family (or it can just be a separate Type with some visibility controls) with a static value (text) instead of a label to force the "5W" info into the Tag.
When it comes to Schedules, we have created a Project Parameter (Integer/Instance) named "FiveWire". in the Schedule, we add this field and hide it, as well as the Number of Wires field. Then we create a Calculated Value with the formula:
if(FiveWire=5,5,Number of Wires)
This way, if we enter a "5" under this parameter in the elements' properties, it will be displayed as having five wires.
