AI-native electrical CAD

Electrical design.
Drawn by an agent.

asoco is the AI electrical engineer. Describe the machine — it draws the IEC schematics, lays out the control panel, numbers every wire and terminal, and generates the full bill of materials.

The problem

Electrical schematics are still drawn by hand.

Every machine and panel ships with hundreds of schematic pages — devices placed one by one, wires numbered manually, terminals counted by eye, BOMs typed into a spreadsheet. The tools cost five figures a seat and take months to learn, so a single error in a wire number surfaces on the shop floor, during commissioning, when copper is already in the duct.

How it works

Describe the machine.
asoco draws the electrical.

A conveyor with a 4 kW VFD motor, an E-stop, a safety relay, and two photo-eyes — wired to an S7-1200.

01 Describe

Specify the machine

Feed it the loads, drives, sensors and control concept — in plain English or from an existing parts list.

02 Draw

Generates schematics

Places IEC 60617 symbols, picks real catalog devices, and draws power and control across multi-page schematics with live cross-references.

03 Lay out

Designs the panel

Arranges DIN rails and wire ducts in the enclosure, checks clearances and thermal load, and routes the cabinet layout.

04 Generate

Produces the docs

Numbers every wire and terminal, then emits terminal plans, cable lists, PLC I/O and the full BOM — ready to procure and wire.

Generated output

One prompt. A full schematic page.

A real page from the conveyor project — power distribution, the VFD motor branch, a dual-channel E-stop with a safety relay, and the PLC I/O. Devices tagged to IEC 81346, wires and terminals numbered, cross-references resolved across the set.

What you get

A complete, manufacturer-grade documentation set.

Not a sketch — the full project an EPLAN seat would produce, consistent end-to-end because one model drives every page and every list.

Schematics

Multi-page IEC 60617 power and control diagrams with live cross-references.

Wiring diagrams

Connection-level wiring with source, target and wire colours resolved.

Terminal plans

Terminal strips numbered, jumpered and bridged — ready for the fitter.

Cable plans

Cables, cores and routing with cross-sections and lengths.

Panel layout

2D enclosure layout with DIN rails, ducts, clearances and thermal check.

Bill of materials

Every device with manufacturer part number, quantity and price.

PLC I/O

I/O assignment, address overview and channel-to-terminal mapping.

Connection lists

From–to wire lists for assembly, audit and as-built records.

Inside the engine

Engineering rules, not a drawing toy.

asoco works the way an electrical engineer does — on real catalog parts, IEC symbols and the cross-references that keep a 200-page project consistent.

01

Real device catalogs

Places parts from live manufacturer data — Siemens, Phoenix Contact, Rittal, Schneider and more — with correct dimensions, ratings and order numbers.

02

Automatic numbering

Wires, terminals, cables and devices numbered to your scheme as the design is drawn — never typed twice.

03

Live cross-references

Every contact, coil and target tracks its partner across pages, so a change here updates the reference there.

04

Design rule checks

Catches open wires, duplicate addresses, missing devices and overload before anything reaches the floor.

05

Standards-aware

IEC 60617 symbols and IEC 81346 device tagging, with NFPA / JIC styling on request.

06

Open exports

Outputs PDF, DXF and structured data — and round-trips with EPLAN projects so it fits your existing workflow.

Multi-vendor

Switch the brand.
Keep the design.

Win the job spec'd on one manufacturer, the customer mandates another. asoco knows the equivalent part in every catalog — it re-selects the hardware and redraws only the affected pages, instead of starting the schematics over.

Why asoco

From a blank page to a wired panel — in an afternoon.

The same project, drawn two ways. One is hundreds of hours of careful, error-prone manual work. The other is a conversation with an agent that already knows the catalogs and the standards.

The old way
  • Place every symbol and device by hand
  • Type each wire and terminal number, one by one
  • Cross-check references across pages manually
  • Re-key the BOM into a spreadsheet
  • Find the errors at commissioning, on a live line
weeks per machine
With asoco
  • Describe the machine once, in plain English
  • Wires, terminals and devices numbered automatically
  • Cross-references stay in sync across every page
  • BOM generated straight from live catalog data
  • Design-rule checks catch faults before copper is cut
