In SOLIDWORKS Electrical, certain items are shared across the program, while others, like Wire Styles, are specific to the project they were made in. This can cause extra work if you frequently use the same wire styles across some or all of your projects. However, there is a way around this. By creating your commonly used wire styles and saving them in a custom template, you can avoid recreating styles and instead have them readily available for any future projects. In this guide, we go over the steps to create the wire styles and the custom template.
There may come a time when the uninstallation of SOLIDWORKS Electrical is necessary. Whether the goal is to perform a clean reinstallation of the program or to completely remove it from a particular workstation, these steps will eliminate all items associated with SOLIDWORKS Electrical. These items include program files and folders, registry entries, data files and folders, and download files and folders.

There are some great new enhancements to SOLIDWORKS Electrical 2D 2025. Let's get started by opening a few of the drawings from the Proteus Motion V2 project.
SOLIDWORKS Electrical includes a set of symbols. These symbols might be sufficient for your requirements, or you may need to create your own to meet a specific standard. You can either start from scratch beginning by drawing the image, adding the attributes and connection points, and adjusting the appearance to suit your needs or modify an existing symbol.
This article covers the SOLIDWORKS Electrical Save Environment command and two very important reasons why you should use it. The Save Environment command is located in the File tab and is used to save your SOLIDWORKS Electrical settings, projects, and libraries. This command allows you to save all or specific settings, configuration, and library information to a file (similar to a ZIP file) for backup purposes and/or transferring your settings to another computer.
In SOLIDWORKS Electrical, attributes are used to represent pertinent information about components. Typically, this information is represented in a single line of text, but occasionally, the text becomes unreasonably long and requires multiple lines. This article explains how to to wrap attribute text in SOLIDWORKS Electrical using the Multiple Attribute command in the Symbol Editor.
When taking the SOLIDWORKS Electrical Training Course, it's encouraged to ask questions. Here is a fantastic question I received that I'll discuss further in this article: What is the best approach to deleting a detailed cable out of a project in SOLIDWORKS Electrical?
