Panel Edit - AIC Rating to include Size Automatically Option
It would be nice to have Electrical DM Panel Edit to have an option for Fault Current - AIC Rating to include "Size Automatically" option, on top of the standard AIC ratings DM provides in the drop down option.

This request wouldn't be hard, but it is one we've specifically avoided to this point. Our thinking is that the AIC rating of a panel is an important enough setting that we want it reviewed and set intentionally by the engineer.

If you are changing lots of panels, make sure you are using the "Edit Multiple" commands. That should help streamline the process a little.

Hi David. What about an option for it that isn't set to size automatically by default? Setting it once and being good to go is nice, but sometimes if an electrical room changes rooms/floors/etc. after this coordination has taken place, it causes a headache to click through updating in this instance last night it was 10-12 panels I had to update each separately. if it could change from 10kAIC to 14kAIC for an example automatically in the backend after a plan update, that sure would be nice and produce more coordinated sets!
