Electrical Symbols CAD Schematics Drawings Symbol Electric Drawing Tool

Electrical Symbols designed for flexibility and simplicity.

One symbol to rule them all.

Unlike other electrical CAD systems, electrical symbols in Electra can be used for both horizontal and vertical drawings with a just a mouse click. Text and label positions are automatically changed, resulting in much faster design cycles.

If you are making your own custom symbols, Electra automatically inserts intelligence into your custom symbols to ensure they behave consistently, with automatic rotation for horizontal and vertical drawings.

	Instead of having a few hundred symbols with little differences to choose from, we designed our symbols to be flexible, simple and smart. For example, our photoelectric sensor symbol can be used for 3 wire or 5 wire, terminal or plug and socket connection, all with one easy mouse click. Rather than spending time searching and browsing for symbols, our users get to do some real work.

Symbols with lots of brains.
	Some symbols in Electra go even further to help you complete those time consuming manual tasks. For example, our Terminal List symbol automatically list all terminals that you have placed on your drawings. Terminal Block symbols automatically count and number all Terminal List symbols when you organize your terminals in a block. The AutoLocation symbol/shape automatically monitors your symbols and displays their locations over multiple pages and present you with a link that you can click to jump to the symbol. The PLC
symbol/shape can automatically generate I/O points, digital or analog.

Symbols with automatic pin sets
	Electrical symbols with pin names in Electra are automatically displayed and allocated, and will be shown in red when all slots are occupied. In addition, pin sets can also be manually allocated using just a right click. Users get to concentrate on good electrical circuit design and safety, while Electra takes cares of the nitty gritty details.

Symbols that understand electrical technology
	Electra understands that symbols with the same references, although drawn on multiple pages represents only a single component. Users get to separate drawing into power and controls circuits and have their symbols listed under multiple pages, and still generate a single real world
component.

Symbols with multiple components
	All symbols in Electra can be assigned to one component or more. Components like relay base and relay clips that does not appear as symbols on an electrical circuit can still be attached and assigned to a symbol, to be generated into reports later. Users saves tons of time downstream, when accurate and detailed reports are produced consistently, no more forgotten components
during ordering.

Symbols that looks awesome
		Included in the full/release version are layout 3D symbols that looks simply amazing. Use these symbols to generate panel layouts that stands out and gets your customer's attention everytime.

Making your own symbols

Creating custom symbols in Electra is really easy. You draw the graphics, and Electra will take care of the rest, including automatic orientation, adding descriptions and automatic adjustment so that it fits on the grid.

We designed Electra so that users spend minimal amount of time creating symbols and more time designing electrical schematics and generating profits.
