I'm trying to format a chart for a server room that calculates the total amount of servers in kW instead of Watts.  When I try and change the project units to kW in under settings/project units, there is no drop down of kilo-watts.  Is there a way I add this parameter into the project or is this something that would have to be done in the MEP version of Revit?

Thanks.

I've been creating a calculated value that divides Watts by 1000, then hiding the Watts column. Seems to be working ok.

Thanks for the reply, but when I try to set a calc. value that divides by 1000 i get an error message that reads "improper used of boolean expressions.  The formula I'm entering is Wattage/1000

Try removing the Wattage units by multiplying the Wattage by -1 first. Crying* Wattage -1).
