Electrical design for electrical maintenance industry

Businesses or maintenance departments of electric plants belong to a type of industry where the initial documentation undergoes countless changes due to the long lifetime of the installation. When an obsolete component fails, it must be replaced by a more recent component and this change must be reflected in the electrical diagrams to keep it coherent with future changes or additions.

It is very common to see plants in which the original documentation has little or nothing to do with the current installation.

To meet the needs of the service sector, Trace Software International has developed elecworks™, the specific software solution for maintenance of facilities and of electrical control cabinets. Changes made on the plant level must be taken into account in the project easily and rapidly.

As it is often the case, the same person, who is on site, transcribes the changes onto drawings. The need to be able to achieve this, with such simple and intuitive software as elecworks™, is essential and fundamental.
