Technical What’s New Ease of Use Enhancements to the user interface and workspaces in AutoCAD Electrical 2010 make it easier than ever to use and learn. • AutoCAD Electrical and 3D Modeling provides AutoCAD Electrical and AutoCAD 3D modeling tools through the ribbon interface. Streamlined Design Environment AutoCAD Electrical 2010 features a streamlined user interface. Find your favorite tools and commands faster, locate lesser-used tools more efficiently, and discover relevant new features more easily.
Technical What’s New Circuit Builder AutoCAD Electrical 2010 facilitates the drafting of electrical circuits. It dynamically generates rulesbased controls circuits based on defined functional requirements such as components, wiring, ratings, and catalog data. Green Design The Circuit Builder tool in AutoCAD Electrical 2010 lets you use calculations to analyze energy efficiency, meet code requirements, and make “green” engineering decisions.
Technical What’s New Motor Control of One-Line Circuits No Wire Numbering for Wire Layers Use the new one-line symbol library to create intelli¬gent motor control one-line diagrams that link back to other drawing types in a project drawing set. Access the library from the icon menu to build one-line circuits with component values and wire sizes that conform to a specific electrical code. Wire layers now have a “no wire” numbering option.
Technical What’s New Proven Benefits Stay Up to Date An independent productivity study1 comparing standard AutoCAD and AutoCAD Electrical concluded that when using AutoCAD Electrical: Autodesk gives you more. Gain access to technical expertise, utilize training and support programs direct from Autodesk, stay up to date with the latest product releases, and give us your feedback.
