    Default AutoCAD MEP 2009 Wire size

    I just upgraded to MEP 2009 and I am very happy with the changes to the electrical design portion of it. But have the following questions:
    1.) When using circuit manager, just to test the functions of the software, I have created circuits using smaller wire than required, and when you let autoCAD check and correct the undersized wires, it alwas comes back saying that all circuits are correct. does any one have the same problem? the only time circuit manager shows a circuit as being overloaded is when you size the breaker smaller than the load requires.
    2.) is there a way to add Wire and conduit size to the panel schedule? or is there a tag to add wire and conduit size the home runs? I use the circuit tag that displays panel and circuit number.

    Thanks for the help

    Can you give an example of which amps/wire sizes it misses so I can test it.
