Why this course

Build Your Career in Electrical Design

Electrical design is at the heart of modern machines, control systems and industrial projects. This program helps you move beyond basic drafting and learn how electrical designs are created, organised and documented using AutoCAD Electrical. You’ll work with schematics, wiring, circuits, panel layouts, electrical symbols, PLC modules, component tagging and project reports. The learning is focused on practical workflows so you can understand not just which tool to use, but why it is used in a real design project. AutoCAD Electrical supports specialised workflows for schematics, panel layouts, PLC design, reports and electrical documentation.

Whether you are an engineering student, fresher or working professional, these skills can help you build a stronger foundation for careers in electrical design, automation, control systems and engineering documentation.

What you'll learn

10 modules, structured around a real product.

Each module builds on the last — by Module 5 you're simulating the motion of a working mechanism, not completing isolated drawing exercises.

  1. 01

    Getting Started with AutoCAD Electrical

    Get comfortable with AutoCAD Electrical and understand how electrical projects are structured. Start navigating the workspace and build a strong foundation for creating professional electrical drawings.

    Topics covered

    AutoCAD Electrical workspaceProject setup & managementDrawing setupElectrical design workflowProject standards

    Practical outcome

    Navigate AutoCAD Electrical confidently and set up projects, drawings and standards the right way from the start.

  2. 02

    Creating Electrical Schematics

    Learn to turn electrical ideas into clear, organised schematics. Create circuits, place components and connect them logically using tools used by electrical designers every day.

    Topics covered

    Electrical schematic creationComponents & connectionsWire creationComponent propertiesCircuit organisation

    Practical outcome

    Create clean, accurate electrical schematics with properly placed components, connections and circuit information.

  3. 03

    Electrical Symbols & Libraries

    Work faster with ready-to-use electrical symbols and libraries. Learn how to find, customise and create symbols so your drawings stay consistent and easy to understand.

    Topics covered

    Standard symbol librariesSymbol insertion & editingCustom symbolsComponent taggingSymbol databases

    Practical outcome

    Use standard and custom symbols efficiently while maintaining consistency across your electrical design projects.

  4. 04

    Circuit Design & Wire Management

    Build well-connected electrical circuits and manage wires without the usual drawing hassles. Learn numbering, sequencing and circuit organisation for accurate documentation.

    Topics covered

    Circuit creationWire connectionsWire numberingWire sequencingWire types & management

    Practical outcome

    Create organised circuits with correctly connected, numbered and managed wires for professional electrical documentation.

  5. 05

    Control Panel & Panel Layout Design

    Take your designs from schematics to practical control panels. Learn to arrange components, footprints and wiring to create clear and workable panel layouts.

    Topics covered

    Panel layout designComponent placementFootprintsDIN rail arrangementPanel wiring

    Practical outcome

    Create practical control-panel layouts with correctly placed components, footprints, wiring and documentation.

  6. 06

    PLC Design & I/O Drawings

    Understand how PLCs fit into electrical design. Create PLC I/O drawings and organise modules and data to clearly document automation and control systems.

    Topics covered

    PLC fundamentalsPLC symbols & modulesI/O configurationPLC I/O drawingsPLC data management

    Practical outcome

    Create clear PLC I/O drawings and document automation systems using structured electrical design workflows.

  7. 07

    Cross-Referencing & Design Coordination

    Keep complex electrical projects connected and organised. Learn how components, contacts and coils work together and how AutoCAD Electrical keeps references updated.

    Topics covered

    Component cross-referencingParent & child componentsContacts & coilsAutomatic referencesMulti-drawing coordination

    Practical outcome

    Manage connected components and cross-references accurately across multiple electrical drawings.

  8. 08

    Bill of Materials & Project Reports

    Turn your drawings into useful project information. Generate BOMs and reports that help teams understand components, quantities and other important project details.

    Topics covered

    Bill of MaterialsComponent reportsWire & cable reportsPanel reportsData export

    Practical outcome

    Generate accurate BOMs and project reports directly from your electrical design data.

  9. 09

    Documentation & Drawing Standards

    Learn how to present your electrical designs professionally. Set up templates, title blocks, numbering and revisions so your drawings are clear, consistent and project-ready.

    Topics covered

    Drawing templatesProject standardsTitle blocksDrawing numberingRevision managementPrinting & documentation

    Practical outcome

    Create professional, consistent electrical documentation that is easy for teams to read, review and use.

  10. 10

    Real-World Electrical Design Project

    Bring everything together in a practical electrical design project. Apply what you've learned to create schematics, panel layouts, PLC documentation and project reports.

    Topics covered

    Electrical schematicPanel layoutComponent & wiring designPLC I/O documentationBOM & reportsFinal project documentation

    Practical outcome

    Complete an end-to-end electrical design project and build confidence applying AutoCAD Electrical skills in practice.
