ElectroSchema
Automated electrical schematics for AutoCAD
Turn AutoCAD into a complete electrical engineering platform covering electrical schematics, plans and planning. Automatic connections between blocks, auto-relinked cross-page references, smart terminal strips and cables, PLC I/O, circuit macros, multi-page PDF export with hyperlinks. Without changing your working environment.
Why ElectroSchema?
Les logiciels dédiés proposent une expérience riche mais enferment vos documents dans un format propriétaire, imposent plusieurs mois de formation et coûtent 300 à 500 CHF/mois. ElectroSchema prend le parti inverse : rester dans votre AutoCAD, utiliser des blocs et calques DWG standards, et fournir plus de 50 commandes métier qui automatisent les schémas, les plans et les planifications électriques d'un projet professionnel.
ElectroSchema covers 3 areas
Electrical schematics
IEC single-line and multi-line schematics, automatic connections between blocks (pin-to-pin, vertical/horizontal alignment), cross-page references with directional relink, terminal strips, cables, auto-detected T-junctions.
Electrical plans
Floor-plan layout (lighting, sockets, distribution) with IEC 60617 symbols, standardised title blocks, configurable page frames and multi-format PDF export ready for the engineering office.
Electrical planning
Device lists, cable lists, automatic summaries, table of contents updated on command, project-wide numbering and batch export for the final documentation.
