About this asset

This surface-mounted Revit family represents a 5x7 inch grey metal breaker box, designed for exterior electrical distribution. This compact surface-mount breaker box features a robust, utilitarian grey metal enclosure, designed to house single-pole electrical disconnects. Its rectangular form is clean and minimal, intended for external wall mounting adjacent to HVAC condensers or utility services. The construction is simple and functional, with a hinged access cover and bottom-entry conduit connection. The proportions are scaled to accommodate standard small-scale electrical components while maintaining a low-profile footprint. This model is a straightforward representation of a typical weather-resistant disconnect box, prioritising functional accuracy and clear geometry for site plans and exterior elevations.

The download is a 461 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.

As a wall-hosted Revit family, this component snaps directly onto exterior building faces. Users should load the RFA file into their project and place it using the standard component tool. The model is lightweight, ensuring minimal impact on project file size. Ensure the conduit entry is aligned correctly with the building's electrical system for accurate coordination in detailed documentation.

Ideal for residential and light commercial projects, this breaker box is essential for exterior electrical site plans. It is commonly placed near air conditioning units, heat pumps, or outdoor service panels to represent the necessary disconnect switch. Professionals will use this asset during construction documentation phases to define service locations and ensure code-compliant clearances. It pairs effectively with other utility equipment models, such as HVAC condensers or exterior lighting fixtures, to complete the technical detailing of a building's exterior utility layout.
