Parameters

name
Type: System..::..String
Name of the new wire type.
materialType
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..WireMaterialType
Wire material of new wire type.
temperatureRating
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..TemperatureRatingType
Temperature rating type information of new wire type.
insulation
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..InsulationType
Insulation of new wire type.
maxSize
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..WireSize
Max wire size of new wire type.
neutralMultiplier
Type: System..::..Double
Neutral multiplier of new wire type.
neutralRequired
Type: System..::..Boolean
Specify whether neutral point is required.
neutralMode
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..NeutralMode
Specify neutral mode.
conduit
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical..::..WireConduitType
Conduit type of new wire type.

Return Value

New added wire type object.

Remarks

Parameter of temperatureRating should be retrieved from parameter of materialType, and parameters such as insulation and maxSize should be retrieved from temperatureRating. otherwise, this add operation is most likely to fail.
