Eplan Electric P8

Your no. 1 software for electrical engineering and schematic design

Eplan Electric P8 is the no. 1 software for electrical engineering and schematic design

Eplan Electric P8: More than ECAD

Eplan Electric P8 is your solution for engineering and documenting projects in mechanical and plant engineering, automation, and control technology.

Eplan Electric P8 offers you much more than traditional electrical CAD software: fast schematic design including component, device and cable data. Design-supporting functions let you create schematic-related documents on the fly, like auto connecting, online checks, translations and automatic evaluations.

Template-based design, including graphical and technical variant management, make change management faster and easier. Your benefits include less effort for your day-to-day work and more time for more important engineering tasks. With Eplan Electric P8, you can also plan fluid power engineering systems and access our Collaboration Apps. These are advanced solutions that streamline engineering processes.

Your added value for schematic design
