Symbols and symbol libraries - masterclass

New custom symbol in an existing symbol library (IEC_Symbol)

New symbol library and new symbol in this library

New variant of a symbol

Import / Export symbols (Symbol exchange between symbol libraries)

Remove a symbol from a symbol library (not intuitive)

Most important tip when working with custom symbol libraries

Layer management

Working efficiently in EPLAN

Bonus lectures - fancy EPLAN thingies

How to tag cables - special case (requirement from some customers)

A pump (electric motor) needs a possible phase switch - how to represent that? p4

Cable core spares - what to do with them in a circuit diagram - two options

What you'll learn

To work with Layer Management in EPLAN (to see what layers in EPLAN can do for us)
To manage symbols and symbol libraries in EPLAN (create, adjust, new variant, import/export, delete etc.)
To work with the data within EPLAN project more effectively (Navigators, Edit in Table, Edit Properties Externally)
To tag a cable according to special requiremet from some customers (special case)
To graphically represent a phase reversal in the circuit diagram (required for some actuators like pumps)
To graphically represent spare cable cores (2 most common ways in the practice)

Dear Student,

I welcome you to, according to my opinion, the intermediate course on EPLAN Electric P8.

In this short but intense course we are going to cover the following sections / function in EPLAN:

Symbols and symbol libraries - masterclass - everything you need to know about custom symbols in EPLAN
Layer management in EPLAN - what layers in EPLAN can do for us in the real-world
How to be more effective when working in EPLAN
Bonus lecture - very interesting way to tag cables (a requirement from some customers in the real-world)

This is going to be one of my last courses on EPLAN Electric P8. I might do another one and for that one I will ask for a feedback from you, my students, to tell me which are the things you would like me to cover in the last one.

After EPLAN courses I will concentrate more on electrical design, with examples of projects I have worked on so far.

To help you master electrical design on a professional level so that you can consider a career in this field of electrical engineering.

I hope you will find my course valuable and fun and I wish you a great success in mastering EPLAN and electrical design!

Also please don't forget to rate my course and leave a short review. I thank you for that in advance.

Your Instructor for Electrical Design,
