EPLAN Product Lineup

Standardization of electrical design is often mentioned, but specific methods are not widely discussed. This is because it requires consideration of the know-how and design philosophies that each company possesses, making it a complex issue. This document briefly summarizes the necessary overview for standardization in accordance with IEC and new JIS standards. It explains the position-oriented approach of "JIS C 0452-1 IEC 81346-1," as well as function-oriented and product-oriented approaches using diagrams. For over 30 years, EPLAN has been accumulating expertise in electrical design, not only in standardization but also in the introduction of comprehensive electrical design CAD.

Introducing the features of EPLAN's 10 solutions.

EPLAN Electric P8 is a 3D electrical design CAD solution specialized in streamlining electrical design for plants, machinery, equipment, and control panels. It standardizes electrical design, making design tasks, report creation, and management of design data easier. When creating circuit diagrams using general-purpose CAD, a lot of manual work occurs, such as preparing symbols, manually drawing connections between symbols, and copying and pasting parts lists into another software. The more manual work involved, the higher the probability of errors, which in turn increases the need for rework. EPLAN's comprehensive electrical design CAD aims to ease the design process by having software perform tasks that electrical designers used to do manually. Additionally, since design data such as component data and circuit diagrams are centrally managed in a database, it offers the advantage of smoothly handling design changes.

In creating circuit diagrams for control panels and distribution boards, introducing "Electrical CAD," which is specialized for electrical design, is highly efficient.
