SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the need for schematic drawing tools specifically for high voltage components such as transformers, circuit breakers, and fuses. While Multisim is mentioned as a low voltage application tool, users recommend alternatives like AutoCAD with electrical libraries, DraftSight, and Solid Edge for drawing purposes. The conversation emphasizes the importance of obtaining the correct symbol libraries for accurate representation in schematics. ETAP is noted as a simulation tool, but the primary focus here is on drawing rather than simulation.
