Your Guide to Buying SOLIDWORKS Electrical Solutions

A comprehensive guide to some of the most common questions people have before buying SOLIDWORKS Electrical Software.

HOW to Choose an Electrical Solution


Which solution(s) is right for you?

Selecting the right electrical solution depends on your company’s specific needs and use case. SOLIDWORKS provides a variety of electrical options from basic to advanced, as well as options for 2D and 3D.

Below is an overview of the capabilities in each software package to help you choose the best solution:

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic Standard
The Electrical Schematic Standard software is an easy-to-use, standalone schematic design tool. Featuring libraries of electrical symbols and manufacturer part information, as well as automation tools, this solution can simplify tedious tasks and significantly speed up the design process.

SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic Professional
The Schematic Professional solution builds upon the solid base of Schematic Standard. When you bump up to the Professional tool, you can create customized reports and float your licenses on your network to be shared among your team. SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic Professional also features more advanced automation to further streamline design, including Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) management tools.

 

SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D
The Electrical 3D tool from SOLIDWORKS enables you to integrate electrical components into your 3D model. Your schematics and 3D models are synced in real-time, bi-directionally, so all changes update automatically. Develop schematic-driven harness designs and 3D cabinet layouts.

Can I Use SOLIDWORKS Electrical Solutions Without SOLIDWORKS CAD?

In order to purchase and use the 3D Electrical add-in package, you must first have a SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD license. Schematic Professional is capable standalone design tools, but to take full advantage of seamless ECAD-MCAD collaboration, you will want to use them in conjunction with SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD.
