Small changes, big impacts: Standardisation for fast electrical engineering designs
ECSI 0123 - Level 1

Small changes, big impacts:
Standardisation for fast electrical engineering designs

The EPLAN Certified Systems Integrator Program - ECSI 0123

From setting standard guidelines for the company to creating teamplates for projects, optimization absolutely requires standardisation in engineering. The goal of our Level 1 certification is to ensure that your company fully benefits from the standardisation of their processes. 

Are you ready to follow the Path to Efficiency?

Let’s take this journey together!

ECSI Level 1

EPLAN Fundamental Integrator

Standardisation

The company demonstrates fundamental knowledge of the EPLAN platform and shows a commitment to the standardisation of its process for design and production, which leads to the ability to automate the preparation of wire labels. The EPLAN platform allows them to create basic templates and reports that carry through the later stages of the Rittal-EPLAN Value Chain

Schematics are done faster than ever before with the help of those EPLAN tricks: using templates, creating macros, taking advantage of the Data Portal and more. In fact, EPLAN gives you access to over 1.4 million data sets, from over 440 manufacturers. This eliminates the need to create new parts for projects and speeds up the design process. Standardisation really is the magic word for exploiting EPLAN’s full potential. 

Benefits in Engineering

The company focuses on the standardization of its process for design and production. EPLAN allows them to create basic templates and reports that carry through the later stages of the value chain such as plot frames, macros, labeling files, wire lists, BOMs, and more.

There are over 1.4 million data sets in the EPLAN Data Portal. In addition, the introduction of the EPLAN Cloud allows for better collaboration on projects, speeds up the revision process and eliminates the need for sharing and printing PDF.

  • All the savings from Level 0
  • Time spent creating schematics falls from 32% to 8%
  • Time spent building a Bill of Material is further reduced from 16% to 2%
  • Checks, revision and document printing is reduced from 28% to 13%

Total savings 77%

Benefits in Manufacturing

In Level 1, labeling is done automatically during the engineering phase, which leads to time saving for that task.

  • Time spent creating and sorting labels is reduced from 10% to < 1%

Total savings 10%
