I am currently learning Revit and I am kinda in the dark about which levels to set.

Wallplate level 5175mm

First Floor Finished Level (First Floor BTM Joist 2475mm) + 242mm "220 joist depth" "22 Flooring Timbers"

First Floor BTM Joist 2475mm

Ground Floor Level as 0m

Ground Level (GL) -150mm

Foundation level GL-750mm

Any Advice would be greatfully received.

I am using 2018

It's really up to you...

We typically set a level for each floor.

Sometimes we'll add one for Top Of Footing.

Sometimes we'll add one for Roof Bearing Plates, or Bottom of Truss... 

It all depends on what your project requires.

If all of your foundation levels change, then there isnt much sense in creating a level for that.
