Hello,
Is there a library for electrical objects that are 3D modelled and have the correct electrical symbol in the floorplan? I just want to place one object and has the right 3D display in my section and just the electrical symbol in the floorplan.
I am working with ArchiCad 26 on macOS Big Sur.
Thank you in advance.

"correct" symbol is hard to define, but Archicad's built-in objects are somewhat ok. They work decently for receptacles and switches, but I find I often still have to do 2D work like adding extra text. The GFCI symbol, range symbols, etc. don't really match the standard in my area. And it's a relatively limited set of symbols.
But the 3D portions of the objects are good (though a touch inconsistent with entering height data)

@Javier Alvez Post have to be in English.
Those objects are part of the standard AC Library so check there.

Hello! Are they part of the international library or the US library?
I have the intentional and all the electrical symbols that I have don't have any 3D...

Did not check Int so maybe they are US only.

The best electrical library by far.
It was updated recently but unfortunately not translated to English yet.
I had bought the previous 1.6 version.
