Motor Power Data Type

Motor Power Data Type

I just learned that 2021.1 will be adding several new data types. That's great!

 

Please add a "Motor Power" data type under the HVAC and/or Electrical category with the units HP and kW. 

 

Right now, if we want to have motor power available in a family with default units of HP, we have to either use HVAC Power or Electrical Power. However, changing those units to HP causes HP to be displayed in other areas where it's inappropriate and it must be overridden.

 

Motor Power is typically reported in HP in North America and kW in Europe, so we need at least those two units.
