Save time through intelligent functionalities – the motto for ReluxCAD for Revit! ReluxCAD for Revit offers all electrical and lighting planners a great deal of added value. The add-on gives you direct access to products from ReluxNet^® with more than 100 luminaire and sensor manufacturers. It determines the required number of luminaires for a building efficiently and simply.

To ensure you can acquire an overview in just a few minutes, the most important information on the new add-on is summarized below. You will also find more in-depth information in the tutorials here.

All functions can be tested without any restrictions for 30 days. The roadmap shows what you can expect from the forthcoming updates.

Features

• Considerable time savings in the automated calculation and positioning of luminaires. (Calculated using lumen method)
• In ReluxCAD for Revit, you have direct access to products with BIM capability from more than 100 manufacturers on ReluxNet®, the product platform for luminaires and sensors.
• How much light is required for a specific activity? This question is answered by the standards to EN12464 (Part 1 and 2) and ASR A3.4 that are incorporated in the add-on. The subsequent lighting planning calculates and positions luminaires automatically. Determining the number of luminaires required could scarcely be faster.
• Connection to ReluxDesktop, the lighting and sensor planning tool for professionals.
• Do you need product parameters to CoBie V1? With a single click of the mouse, the add-on will compile the parameters and fill these with information.
• A parts list is provided as support for subsequent quotations.
• We support MEP rooms since architecture rooms are not available to all users.
• Sensor planning in real time.
• Start your first planning phase with manufacturer-independent products.

Roadmap for next developments

• Is the product from manufacturer “Example” still available? Have changes been made to key parameters? The add-on will look and make comparisons. 
• Do you need product parameters based on additional standards? The following options are under preparation: bsDD, CoBie V2, CIBSE, IFC 4.0, NBS
