ElectricalSetting.AddWireType

Description:
Add a new wire type to project.

Remarks:
Parameter of temperatureRating should be retrieved from parameter of materialType, and parameters such as insulation and maxSize should be retrieved from temperatureRating. otherwise, this add operation is most likely to fail.

AddWireType is deprecated in Revit 2026 and will be removed in a future version of Revit. Please use WireType.Duplicate() instead. WireMaterialType object can no longer set to the WireType, use property WireType.WireMaterial instead. TemperatureRatingType object can no longer set to the WireType, use property WireType.TemperatureRating instead. InsulationType object can no longer set to the WireType, use property WireType.Insulation instead. MaxSize object can no longer set to the WireType, use property WireType.MaxSize instead.
