I carry out a lot of EICRs for councils, mainly on high schools & similar containing in excess of 80 DBs. As part of the job, they request that I provide them with a schematic showing the main panel at source, then all submains and DBs in the installation. Does anyone know of any software that would help me to design this. All the electrical schematic programs I've seen deal with PCBs etc, and don't really help with what I want. Amtech can list all boards once I've finished the test, but not in diagram form.
Thanks
 
If you have the patience I normally use MS Visio or if you can't afford it there's a diagram tool in OpenOffice / LibreOffice that would work.

Don't know of any specific software for db schematics though.
 
Can you non just sketch it and sub it out to a cad office?
Would leave your time free.

Or three is good old Graph paper, pencil & a steel ruler!, no seriously the above option is good, rough sketch and then over to Cad firm or a general Draughtsman
 
Thanks all, I'm going to have a play with MS Visio, and see how I get on. Failing that, as suggested, its being sent out to a pro, and I'll have to part with some money!
