Practical tips: small standardization projects for your electrical engineering design
- Use Eplan templates, for instance for projects and data sheets
- Use uniform reference designations, e.g. according to IEC or NFPA standards
- Set up libraries with re-usable schematic elements
- Maintain an Eplan library for label creation
⇒ Standardize and accelerate schematic creation
⇒ Save time through better collaboration
Further worthwhile steps: standardize once, save time on an ongoing basis
- Increase data depth: enrich schematics with additional project information
- Use current standards as the foundation for project planning
- Systematically create libraries with schematics templates and use them across teams
- Derive complete documentation according to client guidelines
⇒ Automatically generate bills of materials, terminal diagrams, terminal-connection diagrams, cabling diagrams, etc.
⇒ Re-use partial circuits
⇒ Trouble-free acceptance testing and customer agreements

“The Eplan software and its integration into the machine technology helps us create a fully digitalized workflow – from planning all the way through to the finished product.”
“We want to fully exploit the potential of automation."
75% shorter electrical planning with an Eplan Platform provided by Alexander Bürkle.
"The software solutions from Eplan enable us to work together with our customers in a qualified and efficient manner and thus to handle our projects economically.”
"What we found particularly exciting about the Eplan Platform was that we can also integrate the actual production process into the planning, because it is very easy to supply engineering data to milling machines or wire processing machines.“
"The macros have been tried and tested and are error-free. This gives us assurance while also improving the quality of the design. Planners no longer need to carry out time-consuming detailed work when making subsequent changes, e.g. to a power value.”
Speed up your schematic design with functional engineering
By switching to functional engineering, you can speed up your schematic design and increase the quality of your schematics. This ensures that they contain all information for all users.
