Return ConduitRun Elements

[aaronR7JP6]

Long story short, I want to access all conduit elbows in each conduit run on a sheet so I can determine the amount of bend in each run. I can get access to the conduit runs, but I am unable to access each element (conduit) that makes up the run. I'm new to the API so maybe there' an easy solution to this. I have tried GetDependentElements and GetGeneraingElementIds but I'm unsure of he syntax to properly use those methods, or even if those are the correct methods to use. I am using pyRevit to code:

    # Collect conduit runs in the selected view
	conduit_runs_collector = DB.FilteredElementCollector(revit.doc).OfClass(DB.Electrical.ConduitRun)
	conduit_runs = conduit_runs_collector.ToElements()

    # Analyze each conduit run
	for conduit_run in conduit_runs:
		print(conduit_run)
		total_bend_angle = 0
		for element in conduit_run:
			print(element)

I haven't tried this myself, but I imagine the GetSubelements method would return all the items in the ConduitRun. From there you can filter through, find the bends, their angle parameter, and then add it all together.

I don't know if this is what you want, but here is an idea.

I've made two filters: the first one is to get every ConduitRun and the other is to get every ConduitFitting.

With the ConduitRun, a dict was created with each ConduitRun's Id as key and initializing with 0.

Then, for each ConduitFitting, get the associated ConduitRun. I did not find a direct way to get this. There are comments in the code to explain the process. Then, get the angle from the fitting and add it to the dict.

conduit_runs_list = FilteredElementCollector(doc).OfClass(Electrical.ConduitRun).WhereElementIsNotElementType().ToElements()  

conduit_runs_dict = {conduit_run.Id:0 for conduit_run in conduit_runs_list}  
  
conduit_fittings = FilteredElementCollector(doc).OfCategory(BuiltInCategory.OST_ConduitFitting).WhereElementIsNotElementType().ToElements()  
  
for conduit_fitting in conduit_fittings:  
    mep_model = conduit_fitting.MEPModel # MEPModel associated to the fitting  
    connector_manager = mep_model.ConnectorManager # ConnectorManager from the MEPModel  
    if connector_manager:  
        # From here, a conduit fitting has two connectors, one in each end  
        # first we get the connectors and then the connectors that it is connected to  
        # then we get the conduit that has the connector that the fitting is connected to  
        # finally, the ConduitRun for that conduit  
        connectors = list(connector_manager.Connectors) # All Connectors (ConnectorSet class) from this ConnectorManager  
        connector_refs = list(connectors[0].AllRefs) # All references of the connector, i.e. elements that is connected to  
        cond = connector_refs[0].Owner # Conduit which the fitting is connected to  
        cond_run_id = cond.RunId  # Id of the ConduitRun (it was used as key for the dict)

		angle = conduit_fitting.LookupParameter("Angle").AsDouble() # Supposing your fitting has a parameter named Angle  
        conduit_runs_dict[cond_run_id] += angle  

for v in conduit_runs_dict.values():  
    print(v)
