Electrical Installation with WSCAD

Experience ELECTRIX for electrical installation!

With its ease of use and integration into other disciplines such as electrical engineering, the software for electrical installation is ideal for engineers, electrical installers, craftsmen companies, facility managers, electrical system contractors, as well as maintenance and servicing companies specialising in electrical and building systems engineering.

Cross-functional software for electrical installation

With WSCAD, you can plan high- and low-voltage installations as well as antenna and fire alarm systems, design power distribution systems in buildings and define the position of equipment in machines, systems and buildings. Despite the increasing complexity of buildings and systems, WSCAD software allows you to maintain a clear overview. Keep a firm grip on the planning and documentation of extensive installations with network diagrams, reception and data technology, communication and security technology.

Save time and costs in the design phase

Reduce time and costs by automating partial diagrams and the creation of project templates. Reuse previously collected data across all disciplines – from the data point to the terminal in the control cabinet – and avoid errors and duplication of work.

Minimise downtime with modern maintenance and troubleshooting tools

With our WSCAD Cabinet AR App you get the right data, at the right time, in the right place. Using AR (= Augmented Reality), maintenance engineers and service technicians can simply scan the components in question using a smartphone or tablet and immediately receive the corresponding electrical engineering schematic. The app also shows the reference name and a 3D view of the component and the complete item data including the original data sheets from the manufacturer.

Seamless integration of Electrical Installation and Electrical Engineering disciplines

  • Seamless integration in the planning process thanks to the synergy and end-to-end cooperation between the Electrical Installation and Electrical Engineering modules.
  • Electrical installation data, including floor plans, field devices, and schematics, perfectly aligns with the broader scope of electrical engineering. This cohesion facilitates comprehensive electrical system design, where details from installation designing seamlessly contribute to the overarching electrical engineering strategy. The unified approach streamlines the entire workflow, enhancing efficiency and accuracy across both disciplines.

Cabinet EngineeringCabinet Engineering

Professional cabinet design and wire routing
With the WSCAD ELECTRIX Cabinet Engineering module designing panels is super easy: use the precise and optimal placement of components, collision checks or the calculation of wire lengths/routes – all of this available during the design phase. Drilling data for components, mounting rails and cable trays can be configured easily through a dedicated menu. The integrated 3D view of the cabinet gives you a better spatial awareness.

Piping & Instrumentation DiagramsPiping & Instrumentation

Process engineering and measuring point management
Design piping and instrumentation diagrams easily using WSCAD ELECTRIX P&ID (Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams) module.
By linking every P&ID component with their representation in another engineering discipline you get a consistent design. Add the unique, sequential numbering of measuring points and you will be able to remove errors in a breeze.

Installation diagrams and distribution planning
Design building system technology, medium- and low-voltage installations, as well as antenna and fire alarm systems. The Electrical Installation module of WSCAD ELECTRIX is your tool from design to delivery, including the 3D location of equipment in plants and buildings. Import PDF or DWG floor plans at scale, place all the field devices and link them to the existing symbol data of the schematics.

Building AutomationBuilding Automation

Building Automation and measurement control technology
Design layouts and schematics for measurement control technology using the WSCAD ELECTRIX Building Automation module.
Symbols placed in the schematics are linked to the corresponding component and its manufacturer data. This way you can easily generate the BOM for procurement, pricing and manufacturing. You can ensure constant transparency and traceability throughout the entire project. Just rely on the coloured representation of plant schematics and functional diagrams with subsequent evaluation of all functions, materials, field devices and cables.
