Trying to create an electrical system

[Anonymous]

Hello everybody,

I am here maybe with a stupid question,

I am trying to create an electrical circuit via the revit API. I have see that there are not many examples on how to do it.

I have seen in the revit API help the referece to the "NewElectricalSystem" Method (http://revitapisearch.com/html/654da57c-4209-f64d-5f4f-8635c4708f98.htm) and I am trying to do it with the next code:

     FamilyInstance eLoad = doc.GetElement(subCompId) as FamilyInstance;
     ConnectorSet cS = eLoad.MEPModel.ConnectorManager.Connectors;
     foreach(Connector c in cS)
     {
         ElectricalSystem nES = Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document.NewElectricalSystem(c,ElectricalSystemType.PowerCircuit);
     }
 } 

It seems easy, but unfortunately y get the next error:

An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property 'Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document.NewElectricalSystem(Autodesk.Revit.DB.Connector, Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical.ElectricalSystemType)' (CS0120) 

And I have no idea on how do i have to proceed in order to fix it.

Can anyone give any help??

many tanks in advance!

hi,
Please replace Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document.NewElectricalSystem with doc.Create.NewElectricalSystem.
