DraftLogic Electrical & ConEst IntelliBid 7.0 are now integrated to make electrical estimating process 14 time faster

DraftLogic Electrical, the leading electrical design software is now seamlessly integrated with ConEst IntelliBid 7.0 to feed all line voltage elements of an electrical design into electrical estimating software mechanically. Now electrical systems design, takeoff, and estimating will be put in under one roof.   

This combination will provide some great benefits to electrical designers and estimators as they can easily verify and optimize their estimate because there is NO counting, NO scaling, NO measuring, and NO take off work for line voltage systems.

The electrical designers and estimators will be able to create a completed electrical design and estimate from an architectural floor plan fourteen times faster.  

By utilizing this combination DraftLogic Electrical users can export all elements (devices, feeders, and branch circuit wiring as well as luminaires, receptacles, and motors) of their electrical design with associated details into ConEst IntelliBid's count sheets to get rid of manual counting and data entry.

Panel schedules for every panel and every circuit are settled.  Every interconnection from every Branch Circuit wiring run is settled together with support for DraftLogic Electrical's multiple circuit home run groupings facilitating the estimator not to perform any take-off and scaling work.  Vast detail about each piece of switch gear, motor, and feeder is fed into their respective count sheets, saving thousands of keystrokes.

free electrical estimating softwares

Electrical Calculations
Electrical Calculations is one of the best free electrical estimating software mostly suitable for Electrical Engineers and tradesmen. It makes calculations for busbar and cable ratings, static and bulk power factor correction, motor starting currents and curves, enclosure ventiation, transformer calculations and many metric / imperial conversions and constants.
ELECTRIST 1.18
It is also free electrical estimating software. It is considered as a calculator software for the Palm OS, the Top-Rated Electrical and Electronic Engineering Calculator for PDAs today. There are various formulas & variations using which can be applied under a most advanced user interface. Well matched with any Palm OS device from system 3 to 6 whether color or monochrome. It comes with a high resolution feature that generates a high advance high resolution PDAs.
EstiMaker PalmOS 1.1a
This free electrical estimating software provides assistance to electrical professionals with the estimating/bidding process. By using this free electrical estimating software an estimator get the ability to perform a take-off estimate in at least a third of the usual time. The software contains database of over 4600 electrical parts along with pricing and labor data for each part. In order to compute all the factors and create a job estimate, just choose the parts needed for a job. Then point out the quantity of each part and enter amount for extras like special equipment and rentals. The software can create limitless number of jobs to be kept for future reference.
Electrc 2005
This free electrical estimating software is ideal for electrical contractors, engineers, inspectors, estimators, and electrical maintenance personnel. The software execute wire sizing, conduit fill, motor, lighting, panel schedule, transformer, voltage drop, box fill, fault current, and power factor correction calculations. The free electrical estimating software also has built-in reference table from the NEC. Many NEC parameters are supported as well as parallel conductors per phase, ambient temperature derating, terminal temperature derating, quantity of current carrying conductors derating, circuit type, voltage drop percentage, and more. All files are saved to disk and reloaded for future application.
Resistor Values
This free electrical estimating software can work out the value of a 4 band resistor based on the color bands or the reverse. It can demonstrate the color bands of a resistance value entered by the user. The trial version is limited to resistance values of 1000 Ohms (1 KOhm) or less whereas the registered version shows resistor values up to 99000000 Ohms or 99 MOhms.
Electrical Mechanics and Maths 9.2
This free electrical estimating software is an educational software package ideal for MEP sectors including Electrical Installations and Automotive Engineering. With this software the high quality graphics can be redrawn to reproduce every user change.
LadderWorks Electrical Designer 5.0
With this free electrical estimating software one is able to make horizontal prints as well as vertical prints. Printouts of electrical schematics and various different connectors including a couple of special interest printouts of Grids, and notebook sheets, and a checkbook registry. Electricians can create electrical drawings which can be saved or printed out on paper for personal use. This free electrical estimating software comes up with a heats page along with a thermocouple page. There is a three phase page including a single phase page. Anybody can create his own electrical symbol. Just open one of the gif files in Windows Paint. Then wipe out the fuse part of the picture and include your own device according to your choice.
Design Master Electrical 7
This free electrical estimating software is considered as an incorporated electrical building design and drafting program for AutoCAD. The software contains features like panel schedule, circuiting, feeder sizing, fault current calculations, voltage drop calculations, photometrics, light fixture layouts, one line riser diagrams, fully customizable graphics, circuit looping, automatic tick marks switching etc.
Best Estimate Pro
This free electrical estimating software facilitates contractors to perform accurate electrical estimates faster and easier even in 30 minutes. By applying this software purchase orders is generated directly from an estimate. One is able to modify the parts and quantities as per choice and print/fax the purchase order to the wholesaler. In order to make a change order, just modify the electrical estimate according to customer’s requirement. Print out the Estimate Comparison report with the changes for your customer. The software can track the changes you made.
This free electrical estimating software comes up with features like Labor Report which produces the estimated labor hours for each room by project phase. This helps to figure out the total time required for an employee to complete a job.
