⚡ Main features included

• Automatic creation of electrical diagrams

AutoCAD Electrical allows for the rapid generation of single-line and multi-line diagrams, reducing manual work through intelligent drawing tools, automatic wire numbering, and component assignment.

• Standard symbol libraries

Includes extensive libraries of electrical symbols conforming to international standards (IEC, NFPA, JIC, GB, IEEE, etc.), facilitating standardization and collaboration in projects.

• 🧩 Component and cabling management

Each component inserted into the schematic is managed as a smart object, associated with technical information, labels, and links. The software automatically tracks wires, connections, and breaks.

• 📑 Automatic report generation

AutoCAD Electrical allows you to generate bills of materials (BOMs), cable lists, PLC reports, wire numbering and much more with a single click, making documentation fast, accurate and always up to date.

• 🔁 Integration with PLC systems and input/output (I/O) management

Offers advanced tools for the design of industrial automation systems, including PLC input/output (I/O) management and automatic PLC card generation.

• 🔍 Real-time error detection and correction

Intelligent features for controlling electrical errors, such as short circuits, incorrect cross-references, or unconnected wires, improve project quality even before it reaches production.

• Multilingual support and automatic label translation

Perfect for international projects, thanks to the ability to automatically translate texts and documents into different languages.
