Electrical Engineering with WSCAD

Experience ELECTRIX for electrical engineering!

With the Electrical Engineering discipline, you can design, layout, and document electrical schematics for medium and low voltage systems in plant and machine engineering, energy distribution, as well as in industrial and building automation. The software can also be used for working with schematics in the fields of control cabinet construction, facility and maintenance services.

Comprehensive electrical engineering software

  • With WSCAD, you can design electrical systems and devices, electrical schematics for control systems and for medium and low-voltage switchgear. You can also design IT and telecommunications cabinets or create detailed overviews of bus or network topologies.

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.

Electrical InstallationElectrical Installation

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.
