Instead of spreadsheets

Software for electricians instead of spreadsheets and paper

Rename a circuit and the search begins: where else did you write the old name? In DINPanel, circuits, the switchboard, materials and quote draw on one project.

  • Data entered once
  • Checks you cannot do in a spreadsheet
  • Documents in one click

The same work, side by side

Spreadsheet and paper: The same data in four files. A change in one circuit means correcting the notes, the spreadsheet, the drawing and the quote.

Change it once, use it in the next documents

Rooms, circuits, the plan and the switchboard live in one project. The material list, the quote and the documents are built from it.

  • After you change the project, generate new files with the current data instead of editing each PDF separately.
  • On a phone at the client, on a computer at the desk

Spreadsheet and paper: Cable lengths estimated. Metres guessed from a sketch; the shortage shows up at the wholesaler or on site.

Lengths measured on the plan

DINPanel measures every cable along its route on the plan and adds the heights and allowances.

  • Routes along the walls
  • Straight into the material list

Spreadsheet and paper: The switchboard checked in your head. A spreadsheet does not notice a wrong phase or an overloaded breaker.

Connection problems are easier to spot than in a spreadsheet

DINPanel distributes the phases, shows the path of every circuit and reports wrong connections with a suggested fix.

  • Load of every phase
  • Problems listed, not hidden

Spreadsheet and paper: Documents typed at night. Labels, the schematic and the quote are typed last, from scratch.

Documents generated from the project

The quote, the material list, the labels and the schematics come out as PDF with your logo.

  • PDF, Excel and CSV where it helps
  • Invoice through your invoicing service

How to switch

  1. Start with one project

    The demo project shows a complete house.

  2. Set your defaults

    Cables, boxes, products and prices you use.

  3. Keep Excel where it helps

    The material list still exports to Excel and CSV.

What you get instead of files

Documents from the demo project. Click a page to see it in full size.

  • Quote Materials, labour and totals
  • Material list With EAN codes
  • Single-line schematic Drawn from the switchboard

Every step that replaces a spreadsheet has its own page.

Questions about switching from spreadsheets

Can I still get my data in Excel?

Yes. The material list exports to Excel and CSV with the columns you choose.

Where should I start?

Open the demo project, add a room and your first circuit. You can add the switchboard and quote later.

Is DINPanel a CAD program?

No. DINPanel is built for the daily work of an electrician: circuits, switchboard, materials, quote and documents. It does not replace architectural or full engineering design tools.
