Description

Ask BONBON serves as a valuable AI assistant for those in the electrical field, including electricians, apprentices, contractors, inspectors, and students. Users can inquire about the National Electrical Code (NEC) and Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) through text or voice, receiving responses that reference specific code articles. The application features various calculators designed for voltage drop, conduit fill, box fill, wire sizing, grounding, motor calculations, and both residential and commercial load assessments. Additional features are available through paid subscriptions, such as more advanced calculators, instructional videos, the ability to upload blueprints and inspection reports, plan summaries, and analysis of job-related photos. The Master Class option provides practice on code topics, drills for journeyman preparation, exam-style questions, and readiness scoring to help users gauge their knowledge. Accessible via the web and mobile applications, Ask BONBON supports both English and Spanish, with its AI capable of offering answers in other languages like French. Individual subscriptions, crew plans, and options for trade schools cater to various needs, whether for fieldwork, exam preparation, or classroom learning, making it a comprehensive tool for electrical professionals and students alike. Ultimately, Ask BONBON bridges the gap between knowledge and practical application in the electrical industry.

Description

ZapSketch is an online tool designed specifically for electricians, electrical contractors, and estimators to facilitate the planning of electrical home runs. It allows users to import floor-plan PDFs, draw walls on a blank canvas, or start from a quick sketch, enabling them to place panels, junction boxes, and devices while routing circuits and raceways efficiently. As users modify their layouts, the application automatically measures run lengths and offers insights on preliminary conductor sizing, ampacity, voltage drop, and conduit fill based on the NEC 2023 standards. Users can also access circuit schedules and export their marked-up plan PDFs along with raceway pull schedules for purposes such as estimating, review, and transitioning to the field; however, some export options and unmarked reports necessitate a Pro subscription. Additionally, there are free standalone calculators available for voltage drop, wire sizing, and conduit fill. While ZapSketch serves as a valuable preliminary planning tool, it is essential to note that it should not replace thorough code reviews, engineering judgment, or the verification of actual project conditions. This tool enhances workflow efficiency and supports better project management for electrical professionals.
