Wiring Diagrams / Schematics

[skiandy]

Hi are there any software packages available for electrical drawings / schematics for industrial / commercial sites?

Hi there,

Is it to draw the schematics yourself. If so AutoCAD Electrical can do this. The software can be quite hard to use though. Also the software is not cheap. There are usually tutorials online or on youtube to help you get started.

As said AutoCAD is the one for a cheaper alternative try TurboCAD much the same as AutoCAD but without the large price tag

I also use Visio for Fire alarm layouts and schematics

Microsoft Visio is really good!

You need to download the Professional version to have the electrical symbols and stencils in it. You can download it from MS website for free and use it for like 20-30 times for free. Easy to use as well.

Roll yer own in MSWord!

AutoCAD LT would also suffice which is cheaper than full autoCAD

It's still relatively expensive though
