About this asset

This Revit family provides a standard dedicated duplex electrical symbol for use in architectural and MEP floor plan documentation. The symbol consists of a clean, high-contrast graphic representation of a dedicated duplex electrical outlet in a plan view. It features a circular geometry bisected by two parallel vertical lines, which clearly denote the dedicated circuit designation typical of electrical layouts. The lines are set to a consistent weight suitable for standard 1:50 or 1:100 scale drawings. This annotation is designed to be placed directly onto floor plans to indicate the location and type of power provision required for specific equipment, ensuring clear communication between the electrical engineer and the design team.

The download is a 184 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load this family into your project and use the component tool to place it on your electrical or power plan views. As a generic annotation family, it is designed to be placed on top of your model geometry, allowing for quick adjustments to its position without affecting the underlying host. It is best practice to manage these symbols on a dedicated sub-category within your electrical plan view templates to ensure consistent visibility across all sheets.

This symbol is essential for professionals working on residential, commercial, or office projects where specific dedicated power requirements need to be clearly demarcated. It is typically used by architects and electrical engineers during the design development and construction documentation phases to denote outlets for appliances, server racks, or specialized machinery. Search for this asset when drafting power layout plans, electrical outlet schedules, or coordination drawings to ensure your technical documentation meets industry standards for clarity and precision in electrical systems.
