Electrical Conduit Improvement - Assigned, persistent feeder names

Electrical Conduit Improvement - Assigned, persistent feeder names

Currently electrical conduits have a lot less intelligence than duct or piping, which both have assignable systems to help group runs together. This makes it challenging to manage large numbers of conduits during design, as manually assigned feeder names won't stay applied to the entire run while modifying or adding new segments to the conduit run.

Various workarounds exist such as grouping each conduit run into a named assembly, using pipe and pipe systems in place of conduit or re-purposing the conduit type name parameter to name each instance, but after living with this since Revit MEP 2009 it would be great to see more intelligence added to electrical conduits, starting with a simple feeder name.

Hello,

 

Link my idea to yours, they are slightly different but some concepts are the same, let´s get more votes to either ideas!

 Agree with this.  As a slight variation, is there a way to create a conduit run which behaves like "Conduit without Fittings", but can be added to a schedule as a single entity (i.e. "fusing" the bends if you will).  

 

I need a single continuous run between 2 points, which effectively behaves like a "Conduit without Fittings" but can be "locked" to a single run.

 

And while we're at it, is it possible to have exportable conduit families that can be modified is the same way that other rfa files are?
