Auto-Generating Electrical Schematics - How Eplan Electric P8 Automates Design Workflows

Auto-generating electrical schematics is no longer a future concept - it’s today’s best practice. In this video, we explore how Eplan Electric P8, together with tools like Eplan macros, templates, and Eplan eBuild, enables full or partial schematic design automation for electrical engineering teams.

You’ll learn how engineers can reduce repetitive tasks, improve documentation quality, and streamline PLC integration using intelligent design automation tools. With built-in symbol libraries, variant management, placeholder objects, and multi-language support, Eplan software transforms traditional drafting into a scalable, template-driven process that saves time and ensures consistent results.

Whether you’re creating single-line diagrams, complex control systems, or export-ready BOMs and wiring lists, this workflow shows how to digitise and accelerate the entire process - from parameter-based configuration to automatic report generation.

Key features covered in this video:

- How to auto-generate electrical schematics using Eplan macros and templates

- Automating variant-based designs with placeholder technology

- PLC data integration from schematic to PLC engineering tools

- Generating reports automatically (BOMs, terminal plans, cable lists)

- Using the Eplan eBuild cloud configurator for parameter-driven schematic creation

- Applying best practices for template-based electrical design

- Reducing engineering time through reusable schematic structures

- Supporting international projects with multi-language translation tools

If you're working in industrial electrical engineering, managing design automation workflows, or looking to increase engineering efficiency with Eplan Electric P8, this video delivers practical insights and powerful use cases.
