I'm aware this a long shot but here goes...
I would like the ability for the circuit load name to be created/copied from user defined parameter(s) of the circuited element(s). The functionality is already there for circuited electrical equipment, minus user input. It uses the downstream Panel Name parameter for the Load Name. I'd be happy if it only worked on single element circuits but it really should support multiple elements. Read on for more context.
Currently, the load name is populated using the Load Classification of the connector as well as the space name and number, if present. It can be manually changed after the fact. In a panel schedule (template) the option exists to combine parameters of electrical circuits to 'create' a load name, but parameters from the circuited elements are not available.
For low voltage circuits (telecom, security, etc) a circuit almost always consists of only one element. But the circuit load name will say 'DATA' or 'SECURITY'. In order for a (data) panel schedule to be helpful the load names need to be changed to identify the device, a unique device ID. An electrical circuit schedule can be created that achieves this (sort/group/header by panel and circuit number and ability to combine parameters from circuited device). But you lose built-in panel schedule formatting and functionality, like panel location, and schedules are category specific (multi category schedules don't see circuit info). You can't see an access control panel (elec equipment) circuited to a PoE switch (elec equipment) in a security device schedule.
This could also be useful for mechanical loads (AHUs, RTUs, etc) where often the equipment name is desired for the Load Name. The current solution is Dynamo, macro, or add-in export-import. It would just be so much better built into the software.
