Panel schedules using a typical floor plan

[g.crellin]

Hey all,

I am working on a building that is 5 stories, but 3-5 are typical. This is my first time doing panel schedules in Revit and I am encountering a roadblock. Since I do not have floors 4 and 5 drafted, I can't get the loads to show up on my main house panel. Is there a way that I can duplicate the 3rd floor panel with its loads intact to trick Revit into thinking its the fourth floor's panel?

Thanks, I hope that is easy enough to understand.

no, unfortunately not.  There is a 3rd party app that will duplicate an entire floor's content including circuiting, but then you are actually creating the content, not just faking it.  You could put in 'dummy' loads that match the 3rd floor, but this gets convoluted if you care about Load Classifications, etc.

You could create one dummy load per load class per floor and circuit those to a panel per floor, then circuit those panels to your main panel. You would have to update each of the dummy loads manually, but still a lot faster than modeling the whole floors.
