Hi @jvideiraGZHPC ,

 

I think it is not possible to access the reference plane of an element in a project document.

 

A reference in an element is not a ReferencePlane element.

 

In families, ReferencePlane elements are added but in the family symbol and instance they generate all geometry is consumed into a single element.

 

You are given a Surface or more specifically Plane, which gives you the location of the plane.

 

If you want to attach a dimension to it, use the Reference you get originally. But you won't have access to a separate element from this.
