SOLIDWORKS Electrical

While inserting multiple symbols for some component types is possible, it is not possible with SOLIDWORKS Electrical terminals. Therefore, a workaround is required if you would like to insert multiple symbols for a single-level terminal without making it a multi-level terminal. The solution to this…

Origin-destination arrows can be used to create a continuity link between wires in different areas of a single sheet, or to show a continuity link between wires that are displayed on separate sheets. So, what happens when you attempt to insert the arrows, and the…

Displaying the total lengths of each wire style used in an electrical drawing can be beneficial when having to specify the specific amount of each wire style used for vendors. This can help reduce the time it would take to add up the length of…

When a 2D Footprint symbol is created in SOLIDWORKS Electrical Layout, the software automatically adds a ‘Wipeout Frame’ based on the extends of the footprint you’re working on. Firstly, to view frames of a symbol, simply go to the Panel Layout drawing window by selecting…

SOLIDWORKS Electrical provides powerful tools that helps engineers design, manage, and analyze electrical systems. With its intuitive user interface, engineers can quickly create schematic diagrams, generate accurate reports, and even automate creating wires. SOLIDWORKS Electrical also allows engineers to collaborate with colleagues to make sure…

Global symbol attributes in SOLIDWORKS Electrical can be useful in cases where it is desired to change default properties of an attribute text such as appearance, name tag, and description on a global scale. This feature prevents users from having to set these properties manually…
