I have a client standard electrical branch Panel schedules I’m trying to comply with. At the bottom of the schedule they require the Phase Load A, B & C to be totaled separately for Odd and Even circuits as well as Total Connected A, B & C. I can’t find a way to do it though. the few things I have tried total the entire phase, I can’t find a way to have it only total the odd or even circuits columns.
On the same schedule, according to their standards, they want graphical representation of the Phase A, B & C in the center of the schedule. The only options I can find only provide options for totals and shading.
Any help on these issues would be appriciated.....
Thank You.

That is an odd standard; what is the benefit of that? In any case, Revit is not capable of replicating that in any automated way.

One cannot include graphics in a Panel Schedule Template, so this is also not directly possible in Revit. The best you could do here would be to blank out the center columns in the Panel Schedule Template (remove shading, interior borders, font to white) and then create a Generic Annotation Family that is manually placed in the open space once the Panel Schedule is placed on a Sheet. With some work, you could create a Generic Annotation Family of which you can set the size (no. of ccts) parametrically.
That was the answer I was expecting on both issues. just because I couldn’t figure it out, doesn’t mean it can be done (but it usually does…. )
I hadn’t seen that option for a panel schedule either, I’m not an electrical designer, and don’t know what the benefit would be either, it’s just that client..... I think I have the schedule template close enough to there standard that they will accept it. I just told our electrical designer he would have to put the Even/Odd load totals in manually.
Thank you for confirming my suspicions….
