builtright3 Posted Wednesday at 04:07 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:07 PM Hello guy's and gales, Does anyone know where I might be able to find symbols for meter panels? I need 1 that has 5 sockets and another that has 6 sockets. Any help would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use the free version of Sketchup to add more meter sockets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

para-CAD Posted Wednesday at 11:53 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:53 PM (edited) Yep....sketchup can do this, but exporting it to the correct format would be nice. I tried OBJ and lost all the resolution. SKETCHUP ABOVE CHIEF IMPORTED OBJ FILE Options to export from Sketchup Edited yesterday at 12:00 AM by para-CAD More info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
para-CAD Posted Wednesday at 11:55 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:55 PM Here's the sketchup file https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/84btt6xcfuf0m764sum5d/Multiple-electrical-meters.skp?rlkey=uxa3j43aa3xfm9l4a1fyvhk84&dl=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the glass material just needs to be converted to chiefs glass material Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
para-CAD Posted Wednesday at 11:59 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:59 PM There are dials on the meters...... It would be nice to see it the same in chief as in sketchup I don't do things in render to this level, but the OP probably wants more realism than the OBJ output. This is why I don't import 3D. I can just import a static screen shot from SU and it works for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

para-CAD Posted yesterday at 12:09 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:09 AM Now if I could just share the plan with the original post member without sharing all the internals, like details from you and Dan embedded, then that member would be set. Yes........it's a nice slow day and I was fishing for something to help out with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
