About this asset

This face-based electrical outlet is a Revit family designed for wall-hosted placement in interior electrical plans and documentation. This standard duplex electrical outlet features a clean, minimalist rectangular wall plate with two receptacle openings. The geometry is simple and functional, designed to represent a typical North American NEMA 5-15R style configuration. The profile is slim, ensuring it sits flush against interior partitions when hosted. The model includes the necessary connector elements for integration into electrical circuits within a project file. Its neutral aesthetic allows it to blend seamlessly into various interior design styles, from contemporary office spaces to residential developments, without drawing unnecessary attention to the service points.

The download is a 276 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.

To integrate this component, load the family into your project and use the 'Place on Face' tool to host it directly onto walls or partitions. The face-based nature allows for automatic alignment with the surface plane, simplifying the placement process across complex architectural models. Once positioned, you can connect the outlet to an electrical circuit system, allowing for accurate power load scheduling and circuit tagging within your electrical sheets and schedules.

This outlet is essential for comprehensive interior design and MEP documentation in residential, office, and commercial projects. It is typically deployed during the design development and construction documentation phases to define precise electrical layouts. Professionals use this asset to ensure accurate placement of power points for lighting, appliances, and general-purpose receptacles. It pairs effectively with other electrical devices and wall-mounted accessories, supporting a coordinated approach to building services coordination and electrical system planning throughout the entire project lifecycle.
