Hi,


Wot is the best design package for control panels. Autocad is good but expensive.

    If you are looking at schematics/wiring of control panels, then look first to your customer base.

    Some will only accept drawings completed in for example e-Plan, I believe that is all JLR accept. This is sometimes to do with back-office integration, sometimes to do with common formats, standard designs perhaps in the way of macro's that are supplied by the client for the integrator to use.

    There are a few out there that specialise in schematics with varying levels of sophistication and automation.

    It depends on whether you are designing several different panels a day, and whether these are variations on a theme, or whether you do one a month which takes all month, or whether you do two or three a year which take a day each.
