Four sheets, one workbook
Volume summary, type breakdown, cube audit and export information. Counts per type, total active power, and apparent power for phases one to three, per volume.
ElecAxis
Every number has an address.
Three Revit tools that turn a linked model into quantities you can point at.
A length in a schedule is a claim.
Until someone can select the element it came from, it stays a claim.
01 / Linked Element Locator + Marker
A row becomes an object.
Search the host model and every link by shared parameter. Place a traceable marker at the exact source, carrying its full electrical data.
02 / Spatial Volume Generator
The rooms your model never had.
Finds enclosed space from host and linked geometry, without Revit Rooms and without levels. Then tells every marker which volume it stands in.
03 / Cable Route Simulator
Every metre, drawn.
Routes each marker through the real tray network, ranks the alternatives, colours every segment, and exports the length with your margin applied.
One chain, end to end.
Schedule to marker. Marker to volume. Volume to route. Route to report.

Revit 2023 and 2024
The idea
An auditable number is one you can select.
Every figure the suite exports points back to something in the model. A marker you can frame. A volume you can crop to. A route you can look at, segment by segment. When a quantity gets questioned, you open the model and show it.
How the three fit together
One pipeline, three tools.
Each tool earns its place alone. Together they carry one identity from the schedule to the report, so nothing is retyped and nothing is guessed.
01
A row becomes an object.
You have the schedule. The model has the geometry. Nobody has both in the same place.
The Locator indexes the host model and any loaded links by a shared parameter, resolved by GUID rather than by display name, so a renamed parameter never breaks the match. Feed it the controlled workbook and it places a marker at the transformed bounding-box centre of every source it finds, writes the full electrical payload onto it, and reports every duplicate match instead of hiding it.
- Exact lookup, host and links
- Shared parameters resolved by GUID
- 32-column controlled template
- French or English workbook
- Generic Model, Mechanical, Speciality
- Revision baseline and change audit
- Index
Pick your models, your categories and your shared parameter. Build the lookup once and reuse it.
- Locate
Type a value. The match is selected and framed in a temporary 3D section box you can restore.
- Mark
Preview every planned action before anything is written. Category conflicts stay blocked until you say otherwise.
When the linked model comes back revised, it compares against the baseline stored in your host model and tells you what moved, what arrived, and what is no longer there.
02
The rooms your model never had.
Revit Rooms need a properly enclosed region and a level to sit on. An industrial building rarely offers either. Mezzanines cut through, technical spaces run between levels, and half the boundary lives in a linked structural model.
The generator ignores Rooms entirely. It floods the model from the outside, treats walls as continuous barriers regardless of door cuts, pairs opposing floor, ceiling and roof faces, heals the small modelling gaps, and returns the enclosed air as real geometry you can see, name and report on.
- Host model and linked geometry together
- No Revit Rooms, no project levels
- Sloped floor and roof caps supported
- Doorway gaps closed by inference
- Vertical connection through slab openings
- Persistent GUID on every volume
- Section-box assist for exceptional spaces
- Regenerate one volume, leave the rest alone
Then it classifies every marker against the solid union of those volumes and writes the volume's name onto the marker. Ready, boundary review, ambiguous or outside. You accept the reviews yourself.
03
Every metre, drawn.
A cable length nobody can retrace is a number waiting to be argued about.
The simulator routes each marker through the cable network you actually modelled, filtered to the exact parameter value you choose, using real tray connectors and real connector relationships. It keeps the skewed and imperfect geometry instead of rejecting it. It ranks the alternatives by modelled coverage, topology credibility, direction continuity, and only then by length.
Press and hold, or press and hold the Enter key, to run the route simulation.
- Entry
Marker and equipment approach. - Modelled
Real tray geometry. - Repair
Inferred, and counted separately.
Orthogonal routes · Ranked alternatives · Saved in the model · Security margin · Excel and JSON export
Accepted routes are saved inside the model as persistent records. Reload them next session, select their exact model lines, and export any batch again without rerunning the simulation.
The paper trail
Numbers arrive with their working shown.
Length with its working
Calculated length, your security margin, the formula-driven adjusted length, modelled and estimated lengths, modelled coverage, confidence, repair counts and status, per marker.
Dashboard and detail
A summary dashboard, the preserved lookup-level audit, match-level detailed results, and export information. French or English, your choice at export.
Revision to revision
A standalone bilingual workbook classifying what changed between two revisions of the linked model.
Repeatable evidence
A read-only diagnostic of the whole run, for support and for repeating a result later.
Ambiguous and excluded items stay visible in the audit and stay out of the totals. Nothing is quietly dropped.

Straight answers
The questions people actually ask.
We would use this a few times a year. Is a seat worth it?
That is the right question to ask before buying anything. Tell us how many projects a year and how many people touch the model, and we will quote for that, including single-tool options. If the answer is no, we will say so.
Which Revit versions?
Revit 2023 and 2024, on .NET Framework 4.8. Revit 2025 and later moved to .NET 8 and needs a separately compiled target, which is not part of this release.
Will our IT team have to get involved?
No. The installer runs per user, not as Administrator, and writes only to your own add-in folder. Nothing is installed machine-wide.
What does it write into our model?
Only what you approve. Markers are non-hosted family instances placed where you confirm them. Volumes are Generic Model DirectShapes owned by the plugin. Native Revit Comments is never touched, and every deletion asks first.
How long before someone is productive?
Each tool runs a numbered three-stage flow with live counters and buttons that stay disabled until the stage is valid. An engineer who knows Revit gets through a first real batch in an afternoon.
Can we try it on a real project first?
Yes, and you should. Install the trial, run it on a copy of a live model, and check the exported numbers against what you already know.
Does anything about our project leave the building?
No model geometry is transmitted. Activation checks a licence, then the tools work offline. The privacy notice ships with the installer in French and English.
The linked model came back revised. Do we start over?
No. The Locator keeps a baseline inside your host model, compares the new revision, classifies every record, and synchronises only the rows you accept. Anything it cannot see is reported as unavailable, never as deleted.
Pricing
Quoted per team, not per download.
Licensing depends on how many seats you need, whether you want one tool or all three, and for how long. Tell us the shape of your team and we will send a number and a trial.
