Radica Software Announces Electra E7 Electrical Computer-Aided Design Software

Radica Software announced the availability of Electra E7, its latest version of ECAD software for Microsoft Visio. Electra E7 is packed with significant improvements to meet various challenges faced by engineers responsible for highly-demanding electrical and control projects that often require hundreds of pages of documentation to design electrical, pneumatic and hydraulic circuit diagrams.

Electra E7 offers more than 100 percent faster startup speed compared to the previous version and has far easier symbol creation and modifications to help increase the efficiency of electrical, control and automation engineers. Other key enhancements introduced include automatic panel layout placement on rails (for Professional Edition), and, for the first time, Electra now has pneumatic and hydraulic editing capabilities (for Enterprise Edition).

Thomas Yip, founder and CEO of Radica Software said, "We are very excited to introduce Electra E7 with significant improvements that engineers around the globe can use. Electra E7 is capable of producing highly-detailed and accurate circuit drawings, and, it doesn't require extensive training or retraining."

Electra ECAD works on Microsoft Visio which is an extremely easy to use and widely adopted by engineers around the world. Since the first release in 2005, Electra software has already been used in over 42 countries.

"We understand that creating circuits is an extremely tedious and time-consuming job. That's why we've built more automation capabilities in Electra E7 to allow engineers produce these circuits three- to five-time faster compared to non-electrical specific software. With the help from Electra, engineers can focus on safety and great designs, rather than drafting," Mr. Yip explained.
