How do you have the circuiting show the AWG size for circuits other than #12? I would like to have a #10 show up on the wire for a 30A circuit, can this be done?

The wire size is based upon a table in "Electrical Settings". I believe it is based upon NEC 310-16. You set the wire size for each over-current protection setting.

I want the wire shown on the paper to display the size it is. Does Revit display this info. or not? For instance, in CAD a #10 wire will have show a 10 in the wire. I would like to see this in Revit.
Short answer: You can create a tag to show this info. There is already a parameter in the wire properties for wire size, but it is going to show more info than you want. You'll probably have to create a project parameter for wire size (call it something else) and apply it to the wires category. Then create a new tag that reads that parameter.
Thank you. What do you do when you have a #10 homerun but you tag the homerun to show the panel and circuit number? Can you do more than one tag on the wire?
