It is also called a plan which is a measured plane typically projected at the floor height of 4 ft 1 2 m as opposed to an elevation which is a measured plane projected from the side of a building along its height or a section or cross section where a building is cut along an axis to reveal the interior structure. Use the depth clipping parameter to display parts of a model below the cut plane. So i need the cut plane at the elevation more than 1700. You can set the level of view depth to show elements below the bottom clip plane.

About the view range. In the following example the generic model family is above the cut plane but falls below the top plane. The cut plane is a plane that determines at what height certain elements in the view are shown cut. The generic model family category will appear in the floor plan view.
