Dear Student,

In this tutorial we are going to continue to work on our automation project we created in the EPLAN Vol.1 Course. We are going to further expand our project by assigning parts to all the elements in the schematics and then we are going to create 2D mounting panel layouts for all of the cabinets.

Of course, as in the previous course, I am going to share with you a number of useful tips and tricks as you make your progress through the lectures.

If you feel that you are still somewhere on the beginner's level in EPLAN then I recommend that you check my first EPLAN course (Eplan Heavyweight Vol.1) where I show you how to start to work in EPLAN from scratch - i.e. from creating a project all the way up to creating circuit diagrams for PLC and some advanced topis like editing plotframe/form and EPLAN's "Check project" functionality.

I hope you will find this course valuable and I wish you a lot of fun and a lot of success in mastering Eplan Electric P8.

See you in the lectures!

Your Instructor for Electrical Design,

Ivan
