AutoCAD Electrical is a version of AutoCAD designed specifically for electrical engineering work. It contains specialized tools for electrical schematics like pre-made symbol libraries, automatic wire numbering, real-time error checking, and reports. AutoCAD Electrical allows engineers to design electrical control systems faster and with fewer errors compared to using the standard AutoCAD software. It facilitates re-using designs, sharing drawings with other teams, and ensuring accuracy from design to installation.

3. What is AutoCAD..?
 AutoCAD is a drafting software used by engineers and architects for 2-D, 3-D
drafting of houses, schematics, mechanical, electrical devices and it is a substitute
for pen & paper used for decades. Designs can created quickly using the AutoCAD
and it is also widely used stand alone software for designing. AutoCAD is also very
helpful for clothing, landscape designer basically whosever needs things to be
drawn electronically, easily and quickly use AutoCAD.

4. AutoCAD Electrical
What is it?
 Intelligent electrical controls design
 Fully native DWG
 Open and extendable
 The only logical choice for electrical controls design

5. AutoCAD vs AutoCAD Electrical
AutoCAD
 AutoCAD is a drafting software used
engineers and architects for 2-D, 3-D
drafting of houses, schematics,
mechanical, electrical devices and it is a
substitute for pen & paper used for
decades. Designs can created quickly
using the AutoCAD and it is also widely
used stand alone software for designing.
AutoCAD Electrical
 AutoCAD has special software, AutoCAD
Electrical which is used by electrical
engineers for designing electrical panels,
wiring system, control panels and
programmable logical controllers I/O
designs. There are many other features
which make this software popular among
electrical engineers for designing.
