Meet your customers’ design requirements with support for the JIC, IEC, JIS, and GB international standards. Each menu provides access to a comprehensive symbol library that includes push buttons, selector switches, pilot lights, relays, contacts, fuses, terminals, and more. AutoCAD Electrical provides a simple menu-driven system for inserting electrical devices.

These components provide a full spectrum of input and output (I/O) devices, including switches, sensors, lights, and numerous panel devices, such as wireway and panel enclosures.Įasily select commonly used devices to quickly create electrical control systems designs. AutoCAD Electrical comes with a manufacturers’ catalog database that contains more than 650,000 components and symbols from the industry’s most popular vendors. Use real manufacturers’ catalog data to streamline the design process. AutoCAD Electrical drafting software constantly compares the requested changes with the current project and alerts you to potential errors such as duplicated wire numbers or component tags as they occur. When it finds one, it places the number and automatically draws a leader back to the wire.Īvoid costly errors at build time by catching and removing errors during design.

If that fails, it searches for a clear spot away from the wire. In addition, if AutoCAD Electrical determines that an inserted wire number will “bump into” something, it automatically searches laterally along the wire for a clear spot to place the wire number. This numbering convention is flexible enough to meet nearly any design requirement. Reference-based numbers and tags automatically get a suffix when necessary so that names are unique and the software can renumber the entities as the design requirements change. AutoCAD Electrical drafting software automatically places sequential or reference-based numbers on all wires and components, based on the configuration you choose. Spending long hours manually assigning wire numbers and component tags is a thing of the past, as are the potential errors inherent in that process. Automatic Wire Numbering and Component Tagging
