Creating lighting plans using Revit.
00:04
Lighting plans are needed for permit drawings.
00:07
They show the lights with tags, connections to switches,
00:10
and schedules and legends that provide information
00:13
about the lighting fixtures.
00:15
Setting up lighting plans is part of the documentation
00:18
phase of a project.
00:21
First, we're going to create a reflected ceiling plan
00:23
view that displays the lights and switches.
00:27
We'll save it as a view template so you can quickly
00:29
apply the information to other levels of a project.
00:33
Next, we will use the detail line tool
00:36
to add arcs that show the light fixture's
00:38
connections to the switches.
00:40
Finally, we'll add tags to the lighting fixtures and place
00:44
other documentation on the sheet, including
00:46
a schedule and several legends.
00:49
In this set of videos, we'll create a ceiling plan
00:52
view using a view template.
00:54
We'll draw detailed lines showing switch connections
00:57
and add lighting fixture tags and legends.
