What it does
AutoCT routes electrical circuits from their start to endpoint along cable tray routes in Autodesk Revit. It finds the nearest appropriate containment, calculates containment fill, weight, and fitting bending radius, and can use model data or cable schedule entries. The add-in displays 3D views of containment fill factors, cable tray fittings, and weight loading. It also checks for unconnected networks, zero-diameter circuits, circuits without panels, and circuits without filters.
Key capabilities
from the Autodesk App Store listingCircuit path routing
Automatically updates Revit circuit paths to follow cable trays between circuit endpoints.
Containment sizing
Checks containment size using cable sizes, cable types, configurations, spacing, grouping, and support methods.
Fill factor views
Displays a 3D view of fill factors for each containment.
Bending radius checks
Creates a 3D view of cable tray fittings and checks for tight corners.
Weight loading views
Outputs a 3D view of cable containment weight throughout the model.
Error checking
Checks for unconnected networks, zero-diameter circuits, circuits without panels, and circuits without filters.
Use cases
- A Revit model can be used to calculate cable containment requirements along electrical circuit routes.
- 3D views can be used to inspect containment fill, cable tray fitting corners, and weight loading throughout the model.

What the vendor says
«AutoCT is shorthand for Automatic Containment sizing. Our Autodesk® Revit® add-in automatically routes electrical circuits from start to endpoint along cable tray routes and automatically checks the containment size. How does the software work? Using filters created in the model, the software finds the nearest …»
