A Masterclass
What you will learn
Students will get an in depth knowledge of Functionality of AutoCAD Electrical software. Using this knowledge, students can create professional electrical control drawings.
Description
AutoCAD Electrical is the software of the AutoCAD suite which is intended to help control designers with the creation and modification of control systems. This software has extended features to automate control engineering tasks, such as building circuits, numbering wires, and creating bills.
For electrical engineers it’s good for making circuit layout to power plant layout. This module include electrical schematic components, automatic report generation, PLC I/O drawing for spreadsheet, and so on.
