Eplan Electric P8: More than ECAD

Eplan Electric P8 is your software for creating electrical schematics, related documents and managing engineering data. Use Eplan for electrical engineering of machines, control cabinets or complete plant systems.

Rely on the number one software for electrical design and save time while increasing your project quality.

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.
