About this asset

This single pole wall switch Revit family provides a standard electrical device component for interior lighting control schematics. The component is a standard, single-pole wall-mounted electrical switch designed for integration within Revit building models. It is represented by a clean, minimalist 2D symbolic annotation typical of architectural electrical plans, ensuring clear legibility at standard project scales. The geometry is lightweight, focusing on functional documentation rather than high-poly 3D detail. It includes the necessary connection points for electrical circuiting, allowing it to be integrated into broader electrical systems, schedules, and panel board load calculations within the software environment, maintaining standard industry documentation practices for electrical design.

The download is a 164 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.

Users should load this family into their project via the Load Family command and place it on a wall-hosted surface. It is designed to automatically snap to vertical surfaces, ensuring correct alignment with walls. It supports standard electrical circuiting workflows, enabling users to connect the device to lighting fixtures and distribution panels within the Revit electrical system browser for load balancing.

This switch is intended for use in residential, commercial, and office project documentation, particularly during the schematic design and construction documentation phases. It is an essential component for electrical engineers and architects creating comprehensive lighting plans, switch schedules, and power distribution diagrams. Professionals typically search for this as a wall-mounted switch or wiring device to ensure accurate representation of electrical points in floor plans and reflected ceiling plans, facilitating coordination between architectural, interior, and MEP design disciplines.
