CADprofi Electrical - Single User incl. 1 Year Premium Package

Single-user Purchase Licence

CADprofi Electrical

assists users with drawing in the fields of electrical engineering, control, automation, and regulation.

The module for designing electrical, control, sprinkler, regulation, communication, and similar systems contains complete symbol libraries for power, low voltage, and signal installations. This allows both floor plans and electrical schematics to be drawn with ease. Extensive functions to facilitate design support the user in drawing cable ducts, wiring, distribution cabinets, lighting, and more.

CADprofi Electrical is available as a standalone module or as part of the CADprofi Suite package, which offers all 4 disciplines with a 50% discount.

Main Features

• Design of installations for power distribution, control, and automation using variant symbols that allow any device configuration.
• Complete symbol libraries according to national and international standards IEC, NFPA, ISO, DIN, etc. Insertion of symbols with automatic positioning and interruption of lines as well as automatic numbering and labelling.
• Complete libraries from leading manufacturers (Hager, Lovato, Cablofil, Legrand, ETI, etc.).
• Work in architectural floor plans, insert sockets and switches, arrange lighting fixtures, plan the supply of any number of power consumers as well as light strips.
• Circuit numbering with automatic checking and correction of assigned numbers.
• Predefined potential and power lines and predefined typical schematics for distribution and control cabinets, lighting or socket circuits, motor circuits, and much more.
• Design of IT cabinets with elements of structured cabling.
• Planning for automation technology – including programmable logic controllers (PLC).
• Block diagrams, electrical schematics, and symbols for electrical devices required for the design of a “smart home”, e.g. KNX/EIB symbols, control units, alarm panels, neurons, converters, expander inputs, USB and HDMI extenders, PoE switches, modems, routers, cameras, sensors, etc.
• Design of various types of low-voltage installations, including alarm, surveillance, IP surveillance, antenna installations, and others.
• Planning of cable routes using practical commands for drawing duct runs, cable ladders, and cable trays with automatic insertion of the corresponding fittings. Cable routes can be drawn automatically along a displayed info line.
• Lighting calculation with DIALux. After the lighting calculation, luminaires from DIALux can be imported. During import, the elements are replaced by corresponding CADprofi blocks and the data (attributes) from DIALux are adopted.
• Design of photovoltaic systems using products and prefabricated solutions from the PV sector by ABB, DHEN, EATON, ETI, Hager, Noark Electric, Lovato Electric, Schneider Electric, SCHRACK Technik, and others.
• Design of projects with busbar installations in 2D and 3D.
• Planning of lightning protection installations.
• Creation of cable part lists and other bills of materials, taking into account the parameters of electrical objects and their assignment to circuits.
• Intuitive design focused on the wishes and needs of planners.
• Free choice of planning unit – metric or imperial.
• Tools for complete description of project details.
• Automatic object numbering.
• Fast product search in the databases.
• Access to product libraries from well-known manufacturers.
• Possibility to expand the content of symbol libraries and parametric object libraries with your own symbols and objects.
• Automatic layer management and ready-made plot style tables allow suitable line colours and thicknesses to be obtained on printouts.
• Creation of user lists with “favourites” (symbols and objects) to tailor work to your own preferences and habits.
• Possibility to create your own translations of program content or commands.
• Intelligent insertion of objects or their connection to other objects using “one-click” technology.
• Intelligent commands allow quick editing of symbols and objects directly in the drawing.
• Creation of any diagrams, logical, functional, and technological block diagrams.
• Automatic bill of materials function with printout or export to PDF, RTF(DOC), XLS, XLM, CSV, HTML, and others.
• Automatic legends for drawn schematics.
• Context-sensitive help with many illustrations and sample videos that clearly explain how to use the program.
• Online program updates.

Each newly purchased CADprofi licence includes a free one-year Premium Package (software maintenance), which allows you to benefit from many additional advantages. The package can be extended for a fee at the regular price, at the latest before it expires. You can extend the Premium Package at any time, as the extension is for a further 12 months, always calculated from the expiry date, not from the purchase date.

PREMIUM PACKAGE (SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE)

1. As part of software maintenance, the user is entitled to:

• Download and free use of the available manufacturer libraries from the CADprofi internet server (only for CADprofi licences).
• Free download of current program versions from the CADprofi internet server (upgrade), which include content extensions (additional symbol libraries, standards, etc.), functional enhancements, and adaptations to new versions of the CAD base programs.
• Free technical support (hotline).
• Installation of a single-user version on another computer of the same user (e.g. home PC) on the condition that only one of these installations is used at a time.
• Use of all previous versions of the programs (downgrade).

2. Duration and renewal of software maintenance:

Software maintenance is not renewed automatically. Renewal requires a new order from the customer. Perpetual commercial licences can continue to be used even after software maintenance has expired.

Software maintenance can be extended for a fee immediately before it expires (not applicable to time-limited licences). The new software maintenance period begins from the date of expiry of the last period, not from the date of order.

A renewal of software maintenance must cover all CADprofi licences on the respective computer (for CP-Symbols licences, an update must be purchased).
