Check out the newest Electrical Building Design Show, Voltage Drop Calculations in Revit 2025, available now. In this episode, David Robison revisits the previously discussed topic of voltage drop calculations, this time looking for changes available in Revit 2025.

As of this publication, all episodes are available to view on the Electrical Building Design Show Playlist. If there are any you've missed, please go back through the playlist and catch whatever you would like to watch.

The next episode will premiere on Tuesday, June 11, so be sure to visit the Design Master YouTube channel and subscribe for notifications of new releases.

For those who prefer audio podcasts instead, there’s a version of the show in that format also. It’s carried on all the major podcast channels (Spotify, Apple, Google, Amazon, etc.), and can be found by searching for the show by name.

For the second year in a row, ElectroBIM has won the 2024 Product of the Year Silver Award in the Software Category from Consulting-Specifying Engineer. Thank you to all of our customers for your support and votes!

The award was for ElectroBIM 2.1, which added the Generate One-Line command, the EVOLVE Export command, and several other features to make electrical design faster, easier, and more reliable in Revit.

We’re happy to announce the release of the latest version of ElectroBIM for Revit.

Version 2.2.1 is available for download at the link below; new features include automatic wire upsizing for voltage drop, importing wire lengths from EVOLVE, support for Revit 2025, and more.

General

• Video tutorials have been placed on the respective pages of the written tutorials for the ElectroBIM, Design Master Electrical, and Design Master HVAC products.

ElectroBIM

• The ElectroBIM user manual and written tutorial have been updated to reflect version 2.2.1.
• New ElectroBIM Tutorial: We recommend new users watch this up-to-date video series for everything needed to use ElectroBIM. It has been updated to reflect the latest features and includes a greater focus on concepts, beyond just going through the steps as with the written tutorial.
