Rivet panel schedules are very useful
00:06
for capturing and verifying circuit information
00:09
and for driving changes in a project such as circuit and phase allocation,
00:14
the information contained in a panel schedule and the format
00:17
of the presentation is determined by a panel schedule templates
00:21
and those templates are part of the overall
00:24
project template.
00:26
The existing panel schedule templates can be
00:28
customized or duplicated to create additional templates.
00:32
For customization.
00:34
In this project,
00:35
we will review an existing panel schedule and then create a
00:39
duplicate of an existing template and investigate the presentation options.
00:44
After applying some changes,
00:46
the new panel schedule template will be introduced to the
00:49
project and used in place of the existing one.
00:54
Let's open and review the panel schedule for LP two.
00:59
There is a section at the top for entering text notes.
01:04
The schedule has a fixed number of single pole breakers currently set at 42
01:10
values have been added for the circuits connected to this panel
01:16
and the loads classifications are listed with values total at the bottom.
01:22
Because most of the information on the panel
01:24
schedule comes from the circuits in the project,
01:26
it's automatically populated and therefore updated
01:30
as the circuits are created and modified
01:33
from the manage tab of the ribbon.
01:35
Select the panel schedule templates, dropdown menu and select
01:40
manage templates
01:43
from here. Create a duplicate of the branch panel
01:50
and rename it branch panel commercial,
01:57
then select the new panel and make it the default.
02:02
All new panel schedules will now be created from this panel schedule template.
02:07
And any existing schedules can be set to use the new standard
02:11
select, OK. To close the window
02:15
from the manage tab of the ribbon, select the panel schedule templates,
02:19
dropdown menu
02:22
and select edit a template,
02:26
select and open the new template.
02:30
Let's start by editing the template to display
02:33
the number of elements on each circuit,
02:37
select the column
02:38
headed trip
02:39
and from the ribbon choose insert column
02:43
left of selected
02:47
a new column has now been added to either side and some adjustment is required
02:51
use the grips to alter the column width,
02:59
highlight the entire column to the left
03:02
and from the ribbon. Select edit borders,
03:08
then pick outside and inside
03:14
and repeat for the column on the other side of the template.
03:20
Next, we will add the parameter that will automatically complete this field.
03:25
When the panel schedule is in use,
03:28
select the first field below the column head.
03:31
Then from the parameters panel, select the add parameter,
03:35
dropdown menu and choose number of elements,
03:42
select the text in the column head and
03:45
edit the title to number of connected elements.
03:54
Then
03:55
set each of the cells to center, horizontal alignment
04:03
and bottom vertical alignment.
04:09
Finally edit the font to make the text bold to match the rest of the column heads
04:28
from the ribbon select set template options
04:32
in the general settings,
04:33
we see the value for the number of slots that will be displayed in the panel schedule,
04:38
change the option to variable so that the schedule will only show
04:41
the number assigned to the panel rather than the number set here.
04:46
The options found in circuit table include the column header, text orientation
04:53
and the format in which the loads will be presented in the panel schedule.
04:59
Leave this set to loads in split columns by phase.
05:04
And finally, options for the display of unused phases.
05:08
For panels that are not three phase
05:12
within the load summary area,
05:14
we can decide whether to show in the panel schedule
05:17
only the loads that are connected to the panel.
05:19
In which case, all loads in the right hand column are considered.
05:23
And in the order set by using the move up and move down options
05:28
or a constant set of load classifications.
05:31
In this case,
05:32
we can choose which loads are to be included and
05:35
in which order they will appear in the finished panel schedule
05:40
select, ok to close the window,
05:43
select finish template from the template, editor panel to return to the project
05:51
to apply the new template, select change template from the ribbon,
05:57
select the commercial template and choose OK,
06:03
read the message and select a yes.
06:07
The new template has been applied
06:10
and the change is clear to see,
06:12
select the panel schedule from the screen
06:16
and edit the property for the maximum number of single pole breakers to 24
06:25
and see the panel schedule update accordingly.
06:29
Editing an existing or duplicated panel schedule,
06:32
gives you access to a range of presentation options to
06:35
suit your preference for the appearance of panel schedules.
06:39
A standard which can be used across multiple projects and delivery teams
06:44
from additional fields of data to the general display of information,
06:48
creating custom panel schedules can assist in the way electrical distribution is
06:52
reviewed and can improve the clarity of important information in your project.

Create, edit, and apply panel schedule templates.
A new column is added to both sides of the panel schedule template.
All data fields in both new columns autofill.
To apply the new template to the project:
The panel schedule updates accordingly.
