Parameters

name
Type: System..::..String
The name of new added distribution system type
phase
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..ElectricalPhase
Single or three phase this type is
phaseConfig
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..ElectricalPhaseConfiguration
Configuration property of given phase
numWire
Type: System..::..Int32
Wire number of this distribution system
volLineToLine
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..VoltageType
Type of line to line voltage in this system
volLineToGround
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..VoltageType
Type of line to ground voltage in this system

New added distribution system type object.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentException The name can't be nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic), empty string, or equal with any existing one, phaseConfig should be defined and numWire can only be 3 or 4 in case of three phase, numWire can only be 2 or 3 in case of single phase, otherwise exception will be thrown.
