Run a DOL Motor Starter
This is the first control circuit every panel designer draws. Press the buttons and watch current flow through the ladder diagram.
In class you draw this circuit in AutoCAD Electrical and EPLAN, with wire numbers, cross-references and a panel layout.
AutoCAD Electrical vs EPLAN vs ETAP vs Revit MEP
Each tool does a different job in an electrical project. You learn all four.
AutoCAD Electrical
Schematics, wiring and panel drawings. Common with Indian panel builders and consultants.
EPLAN P8
Cabinet layout, terminals, cables and automatic reports. Popular with automation and export panel makers.
ETAP
Load flow, short circuit, arc flash and relay coordination for LV, MV and HV systems.
Revit MEP
Lighting, power, earthing and cable trays in a 3D building model, coordinated with other trades.

What Our Students Say
AutoCAD Electrical and EPLAN together were exactly what panel builders look for. I moved from technician work to a panel design role.
The ETAP module made load flow, short circuit and arc flash studies my strongest skills.
Revit MEP was new to me. Now I model full building electrical systems for an MEP consultant.
As a diploma holder with no CAD experience, I went from basics to EPLAN panel design in 5 months. Now I design solar PV systems.
The substation capstone gave me a complete drawing set to show in interviews. It made a big difference.
I was a site electrician. Now I freelance on schematic and ETAP work, and the AI documentation lessons help me write clear reports.
