Power Circuit Enhancements
As with many server rooms, we have a number of different power circuits connected to a number of different breaker panels, all located in different spaces in the server room.
I'm currently keeping a spreadsheet outside of Device42 to track their locations; I've been able to get almost all the other info I used to keep in this spreadsheet (outlet type, parent breaker panel, etc.) now into Device42 which I absolutely love- but I need a way to be able to record the locations of said circuits within the server room.
Since there are so many circuits, I can see how including them in the room layout view would become very cluttered very quickly- I'm wondering if some sort of overlay would be possible, where from the room layout view I could hit a checkbox in the left panel to show the location of these power circuits, and then uncheck it to again hide them. Even more useful would be to have them light up as green if not currently assigned to another asset/device, or red if they are- and to display what that assignment is on mouse-over.
So what we need is the ability to show circuits (outlets connected to said circuits) on the layout, and not have them just be attributes of the breaker panels.

To add: I want to connect a PDU to a outlet on the wall in a data center then connect that wall outlet to a panel inside the same data center. Is that possible and if so how do I do that? I looked over videos didn't find anything and I searched in the documentation and again nothing showed up.
