In this blog article, we will look at what’s new within the AutoCAD Electrical 2024 release.
In AutoCAD Electrical 2024, you can create a symbol list report that includes the symbols used in the electrical project and the symbol description. Additionally, you have the option to surf a specific symbol that is used in various locations of the project.
Wire Types can now be synchronised for all wires in the network with the same signal code across the drawings.
In previous releases, when you updated the type of the wire connected to the source arrows, the destination wire type was not updated. In AutoCAD Electrical 2024, when the wire type is updated at the source arrow, all wires in the network are updated to the same wire type as the source. New wire layers are created along with its properties if the destination drawing doesn’t contain the new wire type.
Schneider Electric catalogue content and the associated panel footprint drawings for control relays, foot switches, pilot lights, and enclosures are added to AutoCAD Electrical 2024 toolset.
Siemens AG catalogue content and the associated panel footprint drawings for ET200 series are also added in this release of AutoCAD Electrical toolset.

The latest updates to Factory Design 2026 bring powerful improvements to connector class creation, workflow efficiency, and overall performance. From a brand-new Connector Class dialogue to enhanced 4K compatibility and stability upgrades, these changes are designed to make your design process faster, smoother, and more intuitive.
Efficiency, accuracy, and innovation are crucial for staying competitive in the industrial landscape of today. Manufacturing and engineering companies face increasing challenges in managing product development, ensuring design accuracy, and optimising workflows. That’s where Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) come into play.
Implementing a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) system can be transformative for any manufacturing or engineering organization, but success doesn’t happen by chance. It takes careful planning, collaboration, and the right tools. In this article, we’ll walk you through what PLM implementation involves, why it’s critical to your organization, the benefits it delivers, and the best practices to follow. We’ll also touch on common challenges to avoid, expected timelines, and how Sovelia Core can support your implementation journey.
