    Hey we have some exciting news! We are partnering up with MEP Guy to launch the most effective REVIT courses for MEP designers and engineers! Check out the Electrical course preview and sign up here: www.mepguy.com/electrical
    As a special bonus, we're offering a free download of an Electrical Clearance family that anyone can use to designate a "no fly" zone or clearance zone that must be maintained in front of electrical equipment. Drop it anywhere you need folks to keep clear of zappy things!

    The MLO panel tells you on the inside door label which main breaker should be used by part number, if you want to add a main breaker to the MLO load center.

    So, basically a MLO panel gets control by the same breaker that controls the MCB panel right? But what if the breaker is 200A and both panels are 200A? Does it depends on the load calculations to know if is going to work?

    Great video! I'm new to this business and your videos have been really helpful. If you have any books or papers recommendations, I would really appreciate it.

    Do you need a MCB Distribution panel if you have a main disconnect? Can you just run straight from main disconnect to M.L.O and shut off from the disconnect? Why the need for M.C.B?

      If your disconnect is fused or protected in some way upstream, then certainly you can go from the disconnect switch directly into a MLO panel. That’s actually what we do for a few clients that have policies against hot work or if you have a need to cut down on fault currents by using J Type fuses in the disconnect switch.

    can you go over how to create fire alarm strobes and their coverage on revit? for example, if you want to use 15cd AV Strobe, how would you show the coverage on revit?
