Error Checking & Prevention |
|
Automatic Wire Numbering and Component Tagging
|
| 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. AutoCAD Electrical automatically places sequential or reference-based numbers on all wires and components, based on the configuration you choose. 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. This numbering convention is flexible enough to meet nearly any design requirement. |
|
Real-Time Error Checking
|
| Avoid costly errors at build time by catching and removing errors during design. AutoCAD Electrical 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. |
|
Standards-Based Drafting & Component Libraries
|
Electrical Component Libraries |
| Quickly create electrical controls designs by selecting commonly used devices from a menu. AutoCAD Electrical provides a simple menu-driven system for inserting electrical devices. Each menu provides access to a comprehensive symbol library that includes push buttons, selector switches, pilot lights, relays, contacts, fuses, terminals, and more. |
|
Multidiscipline Symbol Libraries
|
| Quickly generate accurate pneumatic, hydraulic, and P and ID schematics using the comprehensive symbol libraries that include devices such as valves, operators, manifolds, meters, regulators, filters, and more. |
|
Schematic Design Tools
|
Visual Wiring Sequence Indicators |
| Graphically indicate the proper wiring sequence of a circuit directly on the schematic to efficiently communicate design intent to the shop floor, avoiding costly wiring errors. When changes are made to a wire sequence, the updated information is accurately reflected in the from/to wire list report. |
|
Panel Layout Tools
|
Create Smart Panel Layout Drawings from Schematics |
| Using AutoCAD® Electrical to create panel layout drawings gives you a systematic means of checking that no devices are missed and makes an electronic link between the representation of the device in the schematic and panel drawings. |
