What is the error?

You should be able to read (and copy) it just above the red component.

Also, if you upload your geometries .3dm + definition .gh , it will be easier and faster to help you.

EDIT:

You are using the Brep | Plane (Sec) component.

If you want to instersect 2 surfaces, use Plane | Plane (PPX) component.

(surfaces will automatically be converted to planes)

Or, if you want a more specific intersection, use Brep | Brep (BBX) component, but it could be somehow more tricky sometimes (or slow, heavy).

It works on PPX component but I do need to create a section through the surfaces. The red component just says 'intersection failed'.

Can you upload your files then?

"I do need to create a section through the surfaces..."

You mean an intersection between each other or a plane intersecting both?

Can you explain where you aim to?
