The company handles projects for vessels ranging from 20 to 150 meters in length and develops tailor-made solar power systems of similar scales. The primary objective is to cover onboard energy demand as independently as possible, without running a generator. To achieve this, solar modules, charge controllers, control units, batteries, and inverters are combined into one self-sufficient system. Typical inverter power starts at 5 kVA for smaller yachts and can scale up to 180 kVA and beyond. Sailectron employs around twelve people and belongs to a corporate group that also operates Offgridshop.eu, the Austrian distributor for Victron Energy, as well as a specialist retailer for solar, charging, and battery technology. In addition to consulting and sales, Sailectron Services provides the complete technical scope \u2013 from detailed electrical designing and cabinet manufacturing in Austria to final on-site installation and commissioning directly on the yachts. Projects often take the team to international marinas across the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, and overseas. \u201cOur customers are often well-known shipyards, but also private owners or representatives of larger yachts,\u201d explains Michael Ponbauer. \u201cMany of them are technically savvy and want to understand their energy system. They expect detailed, transparent documentation.\u201d This is precisely where WSCAD comes in: it forms the foundation for system and control cabinet design, and documentation of complex off-grid installations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; flex_gap_desktop=&#8221;10px&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;153716&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_mobile=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;entrance&#8221; animation=&#8221;None&#8221; animation_movement_type=&#8221;transform_y&#8221; hover_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; image_loading=&#8221;default&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;small&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]Optimised solar modules make use of even the smallest available surfaces on board to maximise energy generation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; bottom_padding=&#8221;40&#8243; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_position=&#8221;default&#8221; row_position_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; row_position_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; pointer_events=&#8221;all&#8221;][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; flex_gap_desktop=&#8221;10px&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">Regulations, Space, and Climate \u2013 Special Maritime Challenges<\/h3>\n<p>Electrical engineering for marine environments is characterized by unique requirements. For vessels under 24 meters, standards such as ISO 13297 (electrical systems on small craft) apply; for larger vessels, further national regulations, fire safety standards, and classification society approvals come into play. Every installation in commercial shipping must pass inspection, and each component must carry certification. Physical constraints add another layer of complexity. Technical spaces onboard are tight, humid, and difficult to access. Control cabinet systems that would fit easily on a two-square-metre footprint on land must often be distributed among several small enclosures. \u201cCorrosion, temperature fluctuations, and vibration make the selection of suitable enclosures and components particularly challenging,\u201d says Ponbauer. \u201cOverall, everything is simply more complex than onshore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before each project begins, a Sailectron technician inspects the yacht on-site. Actual dimensions are captured using a 3D camera and fed directly into the WSCAD design process. This allows Sailectron to create wiring and layout diagrams that exactly match the real onboard environment.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; flex_gap_desktop=&#8221;10px&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;153708&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_mobile=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;entrance&#8221; animation=&#8221;None&#8221; animation_movement_type=&#8221;transform_y&#8221; hover_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; image_loading=&#8221;default&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;small&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]Tight spaces, corrosion, temperature fluctuations, and vibration, combined with national regulations, fire protection requirements, and classification society approvals, significantly increase the electrical engineering demands in the maritime sector compared to onshore installations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1773742997844{margin-top: 20px !important;margin-bottom: 60px !important;}&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; el_class=&#8221;single_testimonial&#8221;]\n<blockquote style=\"margin-bottom: 12px;\"><p>A mandatory cloud service that requires constant connectivity would be impractical for us.

Prior to that, the company worked with another electrical CAD system from a well-known market provider. Today, Sailectron relies on the Electrical Engineering discipline for electrical schematics and on the Cabinet Engineering module for enclosure design. All electrical schematics are created directly in WSCAD. Frequently used circuit sections \u2013 such as chargers, inverters, or battery management systems \u2013 are stored as macros and inserted into new projects at the click of a button. This significantly accelerates design work and minimises potential sources of error. During design, the software automatically determines cable lengths, rail drilling positions, and cable duct fill levels \u2013 ensuring precise fabrication data right from the start. A major advantage for Sailectron is the ability to build its own symbol and part libraries. Many specialised components for maritime energy systems are not included in standard catalogs. \u201cWe can easily create our own symbols, link them to part data, and store them in the WSCAD database,\u201d notes Vrecer. \u201cIn this area, WSCAD clearly outperforms our previous system.\u201d Depending on project complexity, using predefined, data-rich symbols saves between 30 minutes and two hours of engineering time per design section.<\/p>\n<p>WSCAD\u2019s part and material database can also be connected to the company\u2019s ERP system, ensuring that all components used in the design are directly linked to procurement and inventory data \u2013 resulting in significant efficiency gains throughout quoting and purchasing processes.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; flex_gap_desktop=&#8221;10px&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;153724&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_mobile=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;entrance&#8221; animation=&#8221;None&#8221; animation_movement_type=&#8221;transform_y&#8221; hover_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; image_loading=&#8221;default&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;small&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]For electrical engineering, Sailectron Services uses the Electrical Engineering discipline in WSCAD; the ability to quickly create custom symbols and parts for specialized components is particularly valuable.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; bottom_padding=&#8221;40&#8243; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_position=&#8221;default&#8221; row_position_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; row_position_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; pointer_events=&#8221;all&#8221;][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; flex_gap_desktop=&#8221;10px&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">From Design to Control Cabinet<\/h3>\n<p>Once the schematic design is complete, cabinet layout follows using the Cabinet Engineering module. Components can be positioned with sub-millimetre precision, either manually or via Excel-based import. Engineers use the 3D view to verify spatial clearances and ensure that doors, mounting plates, and ventilation elements are properly positioned. \u201cThis really helps us during preparation,\u201d says Ponbauer. \u201cWhen a cabinet is built on shore and later installed onboard, nothing can be left to chance \u2013 every hole and cable entry must be exactly right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>All cabinets are manufactured at Sailectron\u2019s facility in Hundsdorf.

Complete documentation \u2013 bill of materials, terminal diagrams, and cable labeling files \u2013 is automatically generated from WSCAD\u2019s central data at the push of a button, in any required language. A very useful AI capability is the automatic translation of text content: The user specifies the target language, and the software translates the content automatically while taking established technical terminology into account.

This speeds up everyday work while making the system even more accessible and efficient for both designers and technicians.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; flex_gap_desktop=&#8221;10px&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;153692&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_mobile=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;entrance&#8221; animation=&#8221;None&#8221; animation_movement_type=&#8221;transform_y&#8221; hover_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; image_loading=&#8221;default&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;small&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]Onboard installation is carried out using the documentation previously generated in WSCAD, enabling a computer-assisted and highly efficient assembly process.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]\n<h3 style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">A Model for Modern Off-Grid Projects<\/h3>\n<p>The experience at Sailectron Services demonstrates that an integrated electrical CAD solution is not only crucial for industrial mass production, but also for project-driven companies with highly specialized requirements. Especially in off-grid applications \u2013 whether on yachts, expedition vehicles, or remote installations \u2013 precise electrical design, standardized documentation, and digital manufacturing data dramatically increase quality and reliability. WSCAD supports this workflow by integrating all engineering disciplines on a single platform \u2013 from wiring diagrams and cabinet layouts to bills of materials. For Sailectron Services, this integrated environment is daily practice. Their combination of technical expertise, hands-on manufacturing, and efficient electrical CAD engineering has made them pioneers of intelligent, sustainable energy independence at sea.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; top_padding=&#8221;20&#8243; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; row_position_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; row_position_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; row_position_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; gradient_type=&#8221;default&#8221; shape_type=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; flex_gap_desktop=&#8221;10px&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_position=&#8221;default&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][divider line_type=&#8221;Full Width Line&#8221; line_thickness=&#8221;1&#8243; divider_color=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;1&#8243;][nectar_btn size=&#8221;large&#8221; open_new_tab=&#8221;true&#8221; button_style=&#8221;see-through&#8221; button_color_2=&#8221;Accent-Color&#8221; icon_family=&#8221;fontawesome&#8221; text=&#8221;Download case study&#8221; url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.wscad.com\/en\/download\/referenz-sailectron\/?wpdmdl=152455&#8243; icon_fontawesome=&#8221;fa fa-download&#8221; margin_top=&#8221;40&#8243;][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;1&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1773743318473{margin-top: 40px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;small&#8221; text_direction=&#8221;default&#8221;]This case study is intended exclusively for your personal use.
