Parameters

name: Type: System String
The name of new added distribution system type

phase: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical ElectricalPhase
Single or three phase this type is

phaseConfig: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical ElectricalPhaseConfiguration
Configuration property of given phase

numWire: Type: System Int32
Wire number of this distribution system

volLineToLine: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical VoltageType
Type of line to line voltage in this system

volLineToGround: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Electrical VoltageType
Type of line to ground voltage in this system

Return Value

New added distribution system type object.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentException	The name can't be a null reference ( Nothing in Visual Basic) , empty string, or equal with any existing one, phaseConfig should be defined and numWire can only be 3 or 4 in case of three phase, numWire can only be 2 or 3 in case of single phase, otherwise exception will be thrown.
