Eplan Smart Wiring
Clever wiring & electrical engineering software for panel building
Eplan Smart Wiring: Digital assistant for panel wiring
Eplan Smart Wiring enables you to visualize every step in wiring a panel. By providing digital engineering data and always up-to-date project comparison, smart wiring becomes reality.
Eplan Smart Wiring, located in the Smart Production Collection download, is your virtual assistant for manual wiring in panel building. From the connection point to the exact wire routing, the electrical engineering software provides the wiring technician all the necessary information in digital form – also in 3D when required.
Your added value for panel wiring
- Wiring without schematics
- Visualization
- Change management
- Clear monitoring
- Monitoring and reporting
Wiring without schematics
Wiring is possible even without the schematics, which are stored in the assistant. For checking and reference purposes, you can access the schematics – starting from each individual connection.
Clearly visualized wiring
Easy-to-read visualization of mounting layout, devices, connections, connection types and wire routing.
Complete support – even for last-minute changes
If the customer requirements change or wires are missing, this can lead to changes to the production order while the control cabinet is being assembled. Smart Wiring ensures that all employees have immediate access to updated documentation. In addition, the software provides support to implement and document these changes.
Smart Wiring shows the technician the differences between the versions and updates the check list of detailed work instructions accordingly. This way you shorten response times for modifications, simplify communication and lead the technician through the changes.
Traffic-light status for components: monitoring down to each step of the work process
Eplan Smart Wiring tracks the current status of every individual wire using the common traffic-light principle: completely installed wires light up green, while those still needing work light up red. If there are questions about specific components, technicians can note them using the comments function and forward them to the engineering department via email or in a status report.
Monitoring and reporting tool for production managers
Production managers can now gain comprehensive insights into all production orders and performance indicators at a glance: The monitoring dashboards provide detailed analytics, allowing you to track the progress of your orders, identify bottlenecks and make data-driven decisions to optimize processes effectively. The central overview sums up important information about all of your orders and comments. Further, a detailed view provides you with data, e.g. about processing times and material consumption. In addition, you can export a production report for each order.

"We are already saving around 50% on pure enclosure wiring thanks to the combination of the Rittal Wire Terminal and Eplan Smart Wiring. Once everything has settled down and the projects have been planned accordingly, we expect to save up to 75%."
“A tool from Eplan that guides the worker supported by a scanner. So, I have to take the component, I have to scan it and the software does the rest.”
Study "Control Cabinet Manufacturing 4.0"
Is it worth introducing automation for manufacturing and engineering processes in panel building? You’d better believe it – and for both large corporations and smaller companies.
The “Control Cabinet Manufacturing 4.0” study by the Institute for Control Engineering of Machine Tools and Manufacturing Units (ISW) of the University of Stuttgart delivers the figures, data and facts about it. Curious what they found? Then download the study, which is free of charge and available exclusively from Eplan.
