Previously electrical fixtures could only be inserted into walls that were "groups", with this update the wall assemblies can be either groups or components.
This update per customer request.
P.S.
I will still need to update the other misc. electrical fixtures (ie. panels, low voltage, safety, heaters, vents, low voltage panels etc...) -
Version 1.3.5 - 09.29.2023
- Added six additional dimmer switch combinations.
This update per customer request.
-
Version 1.3.6 - 10.04.2023
- Added an offset parameter (advanced options) for outlets which allows the symbol and label to be offset from the wall.
- Added two additional advanced parameters for vertically offsetting text and symbols for switches and outlets.
The text and symbol vertical offsets are driven by the global settings however these two parameters can now be adjusted separately for each individual outlet or switch.
This update is per customer request.
-
Version 1.3.7 - 10.14.2023
- Added four timer switch combinations (Leviton VPT24-1PZ).

-
Version 1.3.9 - 01.08.2024
- Updated and improved the license verification module.
- Disabled redundant logging to improve plugin performance.
-
Version 1.4.0 - 01.12.2024
- Added a "PIPE" shape to the wire module for electrical conduit.
- Added an additional parameter for custom wires (conduits/pipes) within the library: Wall Thickness.
- Added standard PVC (Schedule 40) electrical conduit sizes into the custom wire library.
Note, that previous custom wire libraries will not be compatible with this latest update. If you have an extensive library already established please contact me directly with step-by-step instructions on how to bring an older wire library into this latest version of the plugin.
The dimensions for the OD, wall thickness and bend radius were taken directly from CANTEX and JM Eagle literature, and should match exactly the standard specs for SCH40 PVC in the American and Canadian markets.
-
Version 1.4.1 - 01.31.2024
- Improved the serial number verification logic within the License tab of the Global Settings.
- Updated the javascript logic within the License tab of the Global Settings.
- Added standard PVC (Schedule 80) electrical conduit sizes into the custom wire library.
- Fixed a minor bug with the edit wire profile logic of the wire module.
It turns out the outer diameter and bend radius of schedule 80 conduit is the same as schedule 40, only the wall thickness is different. I learn something new everyday.
-
Version 1.4.2 - 04.21.2024
- Fixed a compatibility bug with SketchUp 2024 while maintaining compatibility with previous versions of SketchUp.
-
Version 1.4.3 - 05.15.2024

- Added the "Draw Service Entrance" function to the primary toolbar.
- Enabled the ability to draw service entrance devices: CSED and Meter Socket.
For the callout and 2D symbol I'm not really sure what I should use, for now I'm showing the device part number and a simple rectangle. Any thoughts or suggestions in this regard will be appreciated.
-
