Multi Circuit Home Runs need 2-pole or 3-pole breakers shown at Panel Schedules

Multi Circuit Home Runs need 2-pole or 3-pole breakers shown at Panel Schedules

NEC Section 210.4(B) states that "each multi-wire branch circuit shall be provided with a means that will simultaneously disconnect all ungrounded conductors at the point where the branch circuit originates" which basically means that if you have a branch circuit home run with more than 1 circuit than they need to be on a 2-pole or 3-pole breaker. Why does Revit not automatically do this for multi circuit branch home runs and why do I have to edit it in autocad after export? Am I missing a function that can do this or edit in Revit before exporting to Autocad? 

It would be nice if when you locked 2 or 3 breakers together on the panel schedule that it would automatically do this or at least give you the option to manually over ride the 1p breakers.Revit.PNG

I don't care to vote because I am not a marketer nor is anyone here, nor do I care what many brainwashed users have to say about such a basic need as this is mind-boggling.  We shouldn't have to beg for such basic needs and if you don't believe me study thousands of electrical engineers and see what they think.

I could also say to treat conduit as it belongs to wire which is not evident with the use of wire in Revit.  IT SHOULDN'T BE CALLED WIRE, as that is a subcategory of what it should be.  EVERY WIRE IN AMERICA AND THE WORLD IS COVERED WITH SOMETHING, not the other way around, even if it is metal, plastic, or vinyl. Please treat it like that.  Some times the wires are paired with neutrals so costs can be saved by customers and it is stated so in the NATIONAl ELECTRICAL CODE.

 

We should never gotten to this stage of begging for basic electrical needs.
