Electrical design software

AutoCAD Electrical is purely an electrical customised software application which designs controls and schematics more efficiently and accurately with comprehensive new symbol libraries and tools for automating electrical design tasks.

Top benefits of using AutoCAD Electrical than using standard AutoCAD is you can automate common design tasks and facilitate drafting productivity with Autodesk AutoCAD Electrical design software’s new features that help:

• Increase efficiency and quickly build standards-based electrical control designs using frequently used devices. New electrical schematic symbol library includes support for electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic standards.
• Reduce time spent tracking changes and checking for errors with automatic wire numbering and component tagging capabilities, which automatically assign unique wire numbers and component tags to electrical schematic drawings based on the chosen configuration.
• Avoid costly errors with automatic monitors and alerts that flag missing or incorrect wire numbers as you work. Improve design efficiency by catching and removing errors during the design process.
• Create, save, and reuse commonly used circuits to improve productivity. Use Circuit Builder to create electrical schematic designs based on wire material type, ambient temperature, and maximum voltage.
• Save time spent running multiple reports with new automatic report generation tools that create reports covering bill of materials (BOMs), from/to wire lists, PLC I/O, terminal plans, and more. Easily sort and filter data to create customised reports and run them with a single command.
• Create smart panel layout drawings that help save you time by automatically linking a device to its representation when it’s inserted into a layout.
• Increase the accuracy of your electrical designs by managing and editing terminals and jumpers through the simplified Terminal Strip Editor interface.
