Professional Electrical Drafting Services Energizing Your Projects
CAD Drafters provide electrical drafting services to visually communicate your visions with accuracy and clarity. We know how important accurate electrical drawings are to safety, compliance, and proper installation. Whether you are designing a residential building, commercial facility, or industrial machinery, our team provides accurate, high-quality drawings that will save you time and money, and you will even be able to mitigate the risk of losing your project during the planning phase to the final inspection phase.
Electrical Schematics
Electrical schematics are the essential building blocks of any electrical system. Our experts will provide accurate schematics which illustrate every circuit, component, and connection to allow contractors and engineers to visualize how power can efficiently and safely flow through the electrical system.
Wiring Diagrams
We can also produce wiring diagrams that demonstrate how every wire and component connects to the system. These can assist installers in laying wires and cables correctly, avoiding mistakes that can prove to be costly during construction, and ensure proper installation so the final installation performs as intended.
Power Distribution Layouts
We prepare complete power distribution layouts that indicate how electrical power will be distributed within your building or facility. We take into account all load calculations, breaker panels and sub-panels to ensure power supply will remain balanced and efficient.
Lighting Layout Plans
Proper lighting is necessary for performing functional tasks as well as feeling comfortable. We will prepare lighting layout plans that show where the fixtures will be located, how switching circuits for lights will be handled, and the load and load calculations, which can help provide you with the necessary illumination levels and energy codes.
Control Panel Drawings
Control panels are the “brains” of automated systems. Our drafters will provide control panel drawings that lay out all of the components for each control panel in diagram form: component location, wiring, and labeling so that assembly, troubleshooting and maintenance is straightforward.
Single Line Diagrams (SLDs)
Single line diagrams illustrate a simplified, simplified view of everything in your electrical system. We provide single line diagrams that explain how power after it comes from the utility, through transformers, switchgear, distribution panels, and anything else you may have, making it clear and simple to organize future upgrades or maintenance.
Circuit Layouts and Diagrams
Our circuit layout drawings detail the routes for every individual circuit, breaker assignments, as well as load calculations. circuit layout plans help the electrical contractors or electricians get it right the first time with their installations and keep everything code-compliant.
Fire Alarm System Plans
Safety is never compromised. Our experts create fire alarm system drawings that indicate where you will need to install detectors, panels, wiring, and coordination with emergency systems, so that your project meets fire safety codes and inspections.
Low Voltage System Drafting
We can draft final plans for low-voltage systems, including data networks, security, CCTV, and access control. Our final drawings provide your installers with a clear depiction of cabling and connections that are compatible with other electrical systems in buildings.
Electrical Panel Schedules
Electrical panel schedules are important to provide correct loading and easy upkeep. We can prepare comprehensive schedules that include all breakers, circuit numbers, loads, and identification of all electrical panels in a project.
Renewable Energy Electrical Drafting
If you are installing solar panels (or incorporating other renewable systems) we provide all the electrical drafting it takes; such as PV panel layouts, inverter wiring, and so on, so that you can rely on your renewable power.
As-Built Electrical Drawings
Once your place is built, we will provide you with complete as-built electrical drawings which indicate all the changes made to the installation. These last documents are often key to facility management, upgrades, and inspections.

Effective Procedures for Precise Electrical Drafting
At CAD Drafters, we recognize that good electrical drafting is more than just marking lines on a plan. Real drafting is about an established, detail-driven process that allows for execution onsite, meets compliance and is accurate. Our process for drafting is solutions-driven and keeps every wire, complete circuit and control system well-documented, meticulously checked and organized for execution either by your team or contractors.
Collaborative Planning and Design Reviews
We kick off each project with an initial planning meeting. Our electrical drafters work session with your engineers, architects and project managers so all technical requirements, design considerations, and local codes can be gathered. We aim to conduct collaborative reviews and speak transparently so that every drawing fits perfectly for your project before we draft.
Quality Control and Final Submission of the Documentation
Once drafted, every electrical drawing appreciates going through several internal quality control steps. We confirm technical accuracy, layer consistency, and industry standards compliance. The submission sets of documents we ultimately produce are in user-friendly formats and coordinated with other building systems, providing your contractors with every clear instruction they can rely upon for a properly enhanced, quick installation of electrical systems, avoiding costly delays, and passing inspections on the first attempt.
