Where it all began
Development plans
In September 2023, KRGP Group made a decision to completely switch to BIM - they had been gradually moving towards this for several months. Designer Nikita Dominov spoke about how this happened when working with the EOM section.

Where it all began
The simplest thing the EOM section starts with is lighting. First, KRGP specialists performed lighting calculations in DIALux EVO software, which also allows you to create 3D visualization of the location of all the lamps on the floor. And thanks to a special plugin, they were able to automatically upload everything to Revit.

at first the company wanted to use the model of lamps from manufacturers, but encountered many problems. For example, one manufacturer could only arrange the lamps based on the support plane, and the ceilings were of different heights everywhere.

Therefore, it was decided to use classic ADSK lamps, but to work on them in more detail. For example, they entered a URL that could be used to go to the manufacturer's website and check whether the lamp indicated was the correct one.

Lighting and group network filters
Filters were set up in the templates, thanks to which the lamps on the plan are highlighted in different colors, for example, lamps with glass are turquoise, and emergency lighting is red.

By analogy with lighting, the display of refrigeration equipment was marked in purple, hand dryers in red, and computers in black.

Distribution networks
Since electrical equipment often changes during the design process, KRGP used electrical loads. For this purpose, single- and three-phase equipment, electrical devices were used, information on power, load, efficiency, etc. was filled in. As a result, the close location of equipment from adjacent sections did not affect the EOM in any way.

Shields
In Revit, panels are not presented in the usual single-line form, but in the form of a table. But phone number italy thanks to the Tesla BIM plugin, you can display the entire specification for all panels with the most basic information about circuit breakers, cable products, etc.

The Dynamo plugin was used to work with group network boards with multiple types of loads. It can be used to get rid of routine work on numbering machines or selecting loads. First, this data is written into the equipment, and then automatically appears in the documentation.

Specifications
Despite the fact that all information is stored in Revit, KRGP decided to output the specification in Word for additional checking of the work done for errors that could arise due to the human factor.

Development plans
According to Nikita Dominov, KRGP wants to automate the process of compiling cable requirement tables; the corresponding script is already being developed.

There are also plans to automate the process of creating lamps, so that the lamps are created automatically based on the data specified in DIALux.

Among more serious strategic plans, Nikita Dominov noted the development of his own plugin for internal use, which would fully meet the company's needs.
