Designing House Wiring & Digital Diagram App

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the design of house wiring and the need for a digital diagram application. Participants emphasize the importance of adhering to local electrical codes and regulations, as wire size is influenced by load, length, and installation methods. It is strongly advised to hire a licensed professional engineer for design and a licensed electrician for installation, ensuring compliance with building code inspections. CAD software is recommended for digitizing wiring diagrams.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of local electrical codes and regulations
  • Knowledge of wire sizing based on load and installation methods
  • Familiarity with CAD software for digital diagramming
  • Basic principles of electrical engineering
NEXT STEPS
  • Research local electrical codes and regulations for house wiring
  • Learn about wire sizing calculations based on load and installation
  • Explore CAD software options suitable for electrical diagramming
  • Investigate training courses on residential electrical design
USEFUL FOR

Homeowners, electrical engineers, electricians, and anyone involved in residential wiring design and installation.

I want guideline to design house wiring. Also need an application by which the design diagram can be digitized.

That would be CAD software and the electrical code of your country.
 
I want guideline to design house wiring

It's so not that simple. Even something apparently simple like the wire size depends on the load, length, method of installation and local regulations.

Perhaps look for a training course?

Please hire a licensed professional engineer to do the design for you, and use a licensed electrician to do the installation and have the building code inspections signed off. Thread is closed.
