WSCAD Description

At WSCAD, we have been developing electrical CAD solutions for over 30 years. Customers include small to medium-sized companies, international corporations, and engineering service providers in the machine-building, panel manufacturing, and building automation industries. WSCAD software is used by over 40,000 electrical engineers as their electrical CAD solution. The software is based on one core platform that covers six engineering disciplines: Electrical Engineering, Cabinet Engineering, Piping and Instrumentation, Fluid Engineering, Building Automation and Electrical Installation. Any change made to a component in one discipline is instantly reflected in all other disciplines, saving time and improving quality.

WSCAD ELECTRIX – our most powerful electrical CAD – is our brand-new offering. No matter if you are designing piping & instrumentation diagrams, fluid power or electrical schematics, cabinet engineering, building automation or electrical installation – WSCAD is the right tool for you. The new ELECTRIX features a fully new design engine (editor) and incorporates compatibility with standard formats such as DXF/DWG, as well as modern technologies such as augmented reality, multi-threading, and automation.

    Great electrical CAD software and value for money!

    Edited: Sep 08 2023

    Summary: We can more than justify the cost of the software based on the amount of time we save thanks to the automation provided by WSCAD software. Most of the manufacturers we use are already available in their parts library. I strongly advise creating macros, which saves a lot of time too. I would gladly recommend WSCAD to anyone who is searching for electrical design software.

    Positive: -Provides a significant amount of functionality required for wiring diagrams, control panel layouts, and electrical installation, as well as built-in reports, pdfs, charts, lists, etc.
    -We also have the hydraulics & pneumatics add-on and the standard symbols are already available in the software.
    -Parts library is quite extensive and free!
    -PLC, terminal, contactor managers save so much time!
    -Also offers interfaces to many manufacturers like Siemens TIA, Weidmuller, etc.
    -Has a symbol editor
    -Custom wire numbering
    -Support team are very responsive and helpful!

    Negative: - For optimum efficiency of the software, a good spec PC/laptop is recommended!
