Dear Student,


I welcome you to, according to my opinion, the intermediate course on EPLAN Electric P8.

In this short but intense course we are going to cover the following sections / function in EPLAN:

  • Symbols and symbol libraries - masterclass - everything you need to know about custom symbols in EPLAN

  • Layer management in EPLAN - what layers in EPLAN can do for us in the real-world

  • How to be more effective when working in EPLAN

  • Bonus lecture - very interesting way to tag cables (a requirement from some customers in the real-world)

This is going to be one of my last courses on EPLAN Electric P8. I might do another one and for that one I will ask for a feedback from you, my students, to tell me which are the things you would like me to cover in the last one.

After EPLAN courses I will concentrate more on electrical design, with examples of projects I have worked on so far.

To help you master electrical design on a professional level so that you can consider a career in this field of electrical engineering.


I hope you will find my course valuable and fun and I wish you a great success in mastering EPLAN and electrical design!


Also please don't forget to rate my course and leave a short review. I thank you for that in advance.


Your Instructor for Electrical Design,

Ivan

One of the better Tutorial I've seen for Eplan found on Udemy. I have picked up some great tips here. I would probably not be using anything from Section 4 (Bonus Lectures), but thanks for the extra tips.

As I have previously gone through the ePlan Electric P8- Essentials for Beginners course, this second course (ePlan Electric P8 Custom Symbols/Tips And Tricks) definitely helps by adding extra fundamental knowledge !!

Yes, he covered all what we have to know about symbols If it is possible to add how to build devices / parts that are not existant in the default parts library, example from new manufacturers ...

paguei muito caro por um conteúdo básico e não tem nem uma hora de video, não é culpa do tutor mas não tem nada de intermediário
