Key
Features
High-Speed Bulk Design Tools
Start new designs quickly with EDes’s bulk import tools. Use the Cable Import Tool or the Bulk Component Builder to rapidly generate cable layouts, and leverage Speed Tools to populate schematics using pre-configured library standards—dramatically reducing manual effort.
Racking & Routing Tools
Route cables across selected racks and
automatically calculate:
- Rack used width
- Unit weight per meter
- Derating values for routed cables
These calculations support precise planning and compliance with installation standards.
Intelligent Cable Sizing
Perform cable sizing based on:
- Load values
- Cable lengths
- Voltage drop during startup and running
- Configurable parameters including number of cores,
parallel cables, and load types
EDes automatically selects the most suitable cable from your project library, ensuring design accuracy and compliance.
Generate detailed MCC load lists using
configurable load efficiency factors. Automatically calculate:
MCC Load List Generator
- Average
efficiency
- Maximum
demand
- And
other key electrical load metrics
EDes provides all the tools needed for scalable,
intelligent, and highly efficient electrical documentation - designed to
support teams working on everything from small upgrades to large-scale plant
developments.
