When I export a Revit drawing to Autocad, all of my electrical devices - receptacles, switches, etc. get exploded and come in as individual lines, with everything on the same layer.  Is there a way to have devices export as blocks into Autocad. 

Revit items that are "electrical equipment" panels, transformers, etc. convert as blocks and come in on the correct layer, but everything that is a device - receptacles, data outlets, fire alarm devices, etc., comes in exploded and on a single layer.

Sorry but I have never seen a way to do this.  The conversion process is all system level and the only options we have is layer control.
