Electrical design is an essential component of the engineering world, encompassing the planning, creation, and detailing of electrical systems. Whether a simple circuit for a household device or a complex power grid for a city, electrical design is critical. In this blog post, we will examine the fundamental concepts of electrical design and highlight its importance.
Electricity is most often generated at a power station by electromechanical generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind.

Just looking for something that is a bit automated to create 2d electrical schematics in Rhino. I use Rhino for mechanical design, the machines in these designs are some what complicated and use motors, pneumatics, switches, ect.
These machines also require controls documentation, and either I piece these together by cutting and pasting from previous schematics that I have created in Rhino or by using Microsoft Viso & electra e7 from Radica software. This works but Its not ideal.
Rhino is very versatile that is why I use it. I can create a beautifully rendered machine; detailed down to the fasteners, guarding, and even painting schemes. Create the detail layouts to send to the shop floor to make the parts and pieces, and even create the tool paths to make those parts and pieces. All with one piece of software.

Thank you.
Not knocking Rhino I use it almost exclusively but since there is something called layouts in Rhino and you can dimension your 2d drawings, it seems that besides the simple dimension tools GD&T would be nice feature. Along with a BOM feature
Did anything happen with this question in the mean time? I am looking for an integrated solution as well. In my case the PCB is part of the physical design. PCB design programs are more focused on the efficient translation from schematic to board while I need some flexibility in where I put my traces.
I am building services engineer and for me, it will be useful integration for future Spawn of EnergyPlus project. But it might be useful also for many more people from electronics, mechanics, automation etc.
What do you think?

Electrical design is the process of planning and creating electrical equipment, such as electrical components, schematics, lighting equipment, power systems, and telecommunications infrastructure. Electrical design software and tools address the specific workflows for electrical controls systems designers.
An electrical schematic is a type of electrical design that provides a graphical depiction of an electrical circuit. Its primary purpose is to show how the components of a circuit are laid out and interconnected, rather than to show a realistic, scaled representation of a finished engineering or architectural project. Electrical schematics may also be referred to as circuit diagrams.
A wiring diagram shows the components of an electrical circuit within a realistic drawing of the finished device or architectural project. A schematic drawing, on the other hand, only diagrams the components and their interconnections, and does not illustrate their physical layout in the finished project.
CAD software is an essential tool for creating electrical drawings, electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and many other forms of electrical design. Builders and makers use products like AutoCAD to create the electrical design for household devices like laptops and video game consoles to architectural projects like houses and office buildings.
Get access to the specialized Electrical toolset (formerly known as AutoCAD Electrical) when you subscribe to AutoCAD. See how you can dramatically increase productivity and save significant time on common AutoCAD electrical design tasks.
Electrical design software is used by systems designers for planning and creating electrical equipment, addressing specific workflows. Electrical design software such as AutoCAD allows electrical engineers to design integrated systems in a fraction of the time normally required when creating the process by hand.
