Error Checking and Prevention
AutoCAD Electrical sotware includes automatic error-checking capabilities that help designers perorm real-timediagnostics to catch problems beore the build phase o a
project.
Automatic Wire Numbering and
omponent Tagging
pending long hours manually assigning wire
umbers and component tags is a thing o the past,
s are the potential errors inherent in that process.
utoCAD Electrical drating sotware automatically
laces sequential or reerence-based numbers on
ll wires and components, based on the congura-
on you choose. Reerence-based numbers and tagsutomatically get a sux when necessary so that
ames are unique and the sotware can renumber
he entities as the design requirements change. This
umbering convention is fexible enough to meet
early any design requirement.
n addition, i AutoCAD Electrical determines that
n inserted wire number will bump into some-
hing, it automatically searches laterally along the
wire or a clear spot to place the wire number. I
hat ails, it searches or a clear spot away rom the
wire. When it nds one, it places the number and
utomatically draws a leader back to the wire.
eal-Time Error Checkingvoid costly errors at build time
y catching and removing errors
uring design. AutoCAD Electri-
al drating sotware constantly
ompares the requested changes
with the current project and
lerts you to potential errors
uch as duplicated wire numbers
r component tags as they occur.
Real-Time Coil and Contact Cross-Reerencing
Signicantly reduce the risk o costly mistakes as-
sociated with assigning too many contacts to a relay.
AutoCAD Electrical sets up a parent/child relation-
ship between the two and keeps track o how many
contacts are assigned to any given coil or multi-
contact device. When you exceed the limit, you get
an alert.
Another benet o this eature is the ability to assign
the next available set o terminal pin numbers to each
inserted child contact, based on the pin list proper-
ties o the parent coil. Display cross-reerencing
inormation in almost any ormat on the drawings,
and run cross-reerencing reports at any time.
Electrical Audit Report
Missing or incorrect wire numbers can cause major
headaches. Use the audit report unction to analyze
and report such design anomalies so you can correct
them beore they reach manuacturing.

nterace. Find your avorite tools and commands
aster, locate lesser-used tools more eciently, and
iscover relevant new eatures more easily. The result
less time searching through menus and toolbars,
nd more time getting your work done.
ircuit Builder
educe design time and increase drating eciencyy automating the creation o controls circuits.
ynamically generate rules-based controls circuits
ased on dening unctional requirements, such as
omponents, wiring, ratings, and catalog data.
he Circuit Builder tool gives you the necessary inor-
mation to help you make sound engineering decisions
hat are also environmentally green. For example,
he conductor size that meets the minimum code
equirements may be the least expensive to purchase,
ut it may not provide the best long-term energy and
ost savings.
ircuit Builder providesynamic display o worst-
ase energy loss costs
or a range o conductor
zes against various
nstallation and ambient
actors. Suggested wire
onductor sizing can be
utomatically calculated
ased upon an electrical
ode requirement.
Make better design decisions based on de-rating ac-
tors such as wire material type, insulation tempera-
ture rating, ambient temperature, run length, power
conductor bundling and maximum allowable voltage
drop. Circuit Builder can also suggest use, breaker,
and disconnect ratings based upon motor or power
eed load.
Reuse Circuits
Slash design time by reusing common circuits.
AutoCAD Electrical gives users the ability to buildcommonly used circuits once and then save them or
reuse in uture designs. When you place a saved cir-
cuit into a new design, AutoCAD Electrical automati-
cally renumbers the wires and devices in the circuit
to match the conguration o the current drawing or
project.
One-Line Diagrams or Motor Control
Quickly create and edit one-line circuit representa-
tions that can then help drive accurate annotation o
three-line schematic circuit equivalents.
Building on the popular Circuit Builder tool or
three-phase motor control, AutoCAD Electrical now
enables you to interactively create one-line motor cir-
cuit and power eed representations. One-line circuitrepresentations can help drive three-line schematic
circuit generation and vice versa.

Panel Layout Tools
Quickly and easily create panel layout drawings withntelligent updating to reduce errors.
reate Smart Panel Layout Drawings
rom Electrical Schematics
sing AutoCAD Electrical to create panel layout
rawings gives you a systematic means o checking
hat no devices are missed and makes an electronic
nk between the representation o the device in the
chematic and panel drawings.
eres how it works: Once you have created an elec-
rical schematic, the sotware extracts a list o sche-
matic components or placement in the panel layoutrawings. You simply choose a device rom the list
nd drag it into place. The physical ootprint rep-
esentation o each schematic device is inserted into
he layout at the point you select. Then the sotware
reates an electronic link between the schematic and
anel device representations. So when you change
ey data on one drawing, you get a prompt or
ermission to update the other. Even non-schematic
ems like wire duct and mounting hardware can be
dded to the layout and automatically combined to
reate a smart panel bill o materials (BOM) report.
Starting Designs with a Panel Layout Drawing
AutoCAD Electrical provides a fexible design envi-
ronment that works the way you want to work. You
can start designs by creating a panel layout drawing
and using it to drive the creation o the correspond-
ing logical control schematics. This eature gives you
the boost you need or tight turnaround times and
supports the needs o individual designers.
Location Boxes and Markers
Quickly and easily associate groups o devices witha specic panel location using the Location Box
command. Apply location markers on the schematic
that represent the corresponding panel location. This
capability makes it easy to identiy locations or a
device or group o devices, resulting in more accurate
panel layouts.
Insert Balloons on Panel Devices
Save time by automatically annotating control panel
drawings with intelligent item balloons that coincide
with the panel BOM.

nd the corresponding PLC program helps you reduce
esign time and minimize errors.
Automatically Create PLC/IO Drawings rom
Spreadsheets
Generate a complete set o PLC I/O drawings
simply by dening the projects I/O assignments in
a spreadsheet program. This capability can save you
a tremendous amount o design time by virtually
eliminating the need to create those drawings in an
