I currently am working on a project electrically and another firm is working on it mechanically. I want to cop/monitor thier mechanical devices into my model so I can hook up power to them. I have not found this option yet. Is this possible? furthermore I can't seem to be able to extract the electrical info out of thier schedules so I can schedule the mechanical equipmet. can someone please help me with these issues?

You can link any REVIT model - doesn't matter how it was produced.

For your schedule question, use your H E L P  with this search linked elements, scheduling

I have thier model already linked into mine. The issue is that I can't copy/monitor thier equipment. the only options that I get for copy/monitor is for walls, floors, grids and levels. Revit will not allow me to select the mechanical equipmet.

The only reason to copy/monitor it is if you need to use their items to host your work or if you are going to move them - edit them.     So ... are you changing something of theirs or do you want to just see it and schedule it?

I want to be able to hook my electrical up to the mechanical equipment. Currently I have the mechanical model linked into mine. I can't put circuits to the mechanical equipment without having the equipment in my model. And I can't see any of the electrical information on thier schedules. So I am kinda stuck.

You are not stuck.

 

First - if you followed the guidelines for the linked model, you will see the schedule.

 

Second - If you can't copy monitor (This may be someting to look on the AUGI site for since I don't have MEP), you can always do it the hard way. 

  1. Make sure their model is properly linked.  As such, your levels, grids, walls etc are all the sameOpen their model & select all  same. 
  2. From a 3D view, select all of their elements using the family menu and select all instances.
  3. Copy to clipboard
  4. Open your model in 3D and paste
  5. Turn off their items in the link.
