Eplan Pro Panel
Create 3D layouts for control panels and switchgear
Eplan Pro Panel: Advancing from documentation to 3D layout
Create a 3D digital control cabinet layout from the schematic data. Provide a comprehensive description of the enclosure design and manufacturing specification. Eplan Pro Panel is tailored specifically to the requirements of electrical design. It’s as easy to use in 3D as it is in 2D.
With Eplan, digital data becomes the basis for the industrialization of your panel production. Using Eplan Pro Panel, you can design the digital twin of a control cabinet, control system or switchgear.
This 3D model includes the positioning of the wiring ducts, DIN rails, components, drill holes and housing cut-outs along with the exact determination of wire lengths and routing paths. Create documents and provide true digital data for material procurement and production preparation with just a few clicks: including parts-, cutting- and wiring lists.

Professional schematic design included
Create schematics with Eplan Pro Panel Professional. Use them as foundation for comprehensive control cabinet documentation.
Integrated product configurators
Use product configurators like Rittal RiPanel to select enclosure systems and transfer 3D models to Eplan Pro Panel.
Define the mechanical structure of your control cabinet
Based on component placement, necessary drill holes and millings are positioned and manufacturing documents can be derived automatically.
Add electrical connections to complete your cabinet layout
Define routing paths and rules, automatically determine wire lengths and fill levels for cable ducts. Derive detailed wiring reports.
Get guidance and check your layout
Clean up your control cabinet layout: check mounting clearance for thermal and electromagnetic compatibility. Verify thermal aspects, receive guidance regarding thermal conditions and appropriate cooling solutions.
Support mounting and wiring: manual, semi-automated, automated
Derive mounting and wiring data and provide your prepared data to the workshop. Precise work instructions with 3D-visualization ensure efficient control cabinet construction.
