Is It Possible To Create A Smart Conduit And Cable Schedule

I do a lot of 3D modeling of underfloor conduit and cable. The projects I work on are quite large and so I was wondering that with the schedules I use, if Revit has a feature that automatically populates a conduit/cable schedule? For example, if I create a 3D conduit from switchgear 1 to switchgear 2, I would want the schedule to populate in the "FROM" column as switchgear 1 for this conduit and in the "TO" column as switchgear 2. Beyond that, it would be nice to be able to populate the cable sizing for the phase conductors column as well as the ground grounding column. I know this would probably be something that would have to be set in the properties of that cable but as soon as it goes from one piece of equipment to the other, it pulls those properties into the schedule and populates the appropriate columns. I am not sure if this is something that Revit can for or something that I would need to do manually. Thanks in advance!

Not sure if there are add-ins that might help. But alternative way might be to do something with Dynamo.

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.
