I already had AutoCadd skills, so the learning curve for Electrical was much shorter, plus all our drawings were already in AutoCadd format, so I could use our existing library and do the AutoCadd Lisp magic on those drawings.Īll our customers' P&ID drawings are in AutoCadd, so using Electrical would could modify those drawings and return them in AutoCadd format. I found Eplan very expensive and difficult to learn.įor what I could buy for 1 Eplan license, I could buy 2 AutoCadd Electrical Network licenses. If you are familiar with Autocadd and have a library built up, stick with AutoCadd Electrical.ģ years ago I looked into Eplan vs AutoCadd. Something thats generates drawings, BOM's, panel layout's may be a great tool as we look ahead. We currently use Autocad Lt for our electrical drawing but now are starting to think of the best course for the future. I was wondering if members here could good give me the pros or cons on Eplan.Īlso I had mentioned Autocad Electrical as a possibly alernative but I don't know how it stacks up against Eplan. Our company is thinking out purchasing Eplan.
