+# Electrical
+
+## Info
+
+### Lighting Control
+
+By PDI convention, [[lighting-controls]] are generally "Electrical", not "Lighting".
+
+## Sequence
+
+### 1. Preparation
+
+[[pre-takeoff-research#Wiring Device Selection]]
+
+1. Read about the project specifications and construction type
+2. Locate Equipment Schedules
+
+### 2. Takeoff
+
+1. Takeoff all equipment that is not #12
+2. Go by Drawing in chronological order
+3. Takeoff Enlarged Drawings
+4. Do final checklist in electrical takeoff notes
+
+> [!tip]
+> It is sometimes easier to rebuild a designation than to modify it.
+> For designations with existing takeoffs, Right-Click > `Empty Designation`.
+> The build process can then be completed anew.
