Autodesk AutoCAD Electrical 2025

Autodesk AutoCAD Electrical Overview

AutoCAD Electrical toolset is now included with AutoCAD. Efficiently create, modify, and document electrical control systems with an industry-specific toolset for electrical design.

It contains all the functionality of AutoCAD, plus a comprehensive set of tools for automating control engineering tasks, such as building circuits, numbering wires, and creating bills of material.

This program provides a library of over 700,000 electrical symbols and components, includes real-time error checking, and enables electrical and mechanical teams to collaborate on digital prototypes built with Autodesk Inventor software. Electrical offers control engineers a competitive edge by helping them save hours of effort so they can spend more time innovating.

Electrical is one of the toolsets available in AutoCAD. This powerful add-on for electrical designers and engineers offers automated drafting tools for designing wiring, circuiting, PLC modules, panels, and data and schedules. In addition to all the benefits that AutoCAD offers, this course trains novice users to use AutoCAD Electrical quickly and effectively.
