Commercial Electrical Designer
iOS Universel / Education
This app is a visual reference and calculation tool for electrical engineers, designers, electricians, and students working on commercial building projects.
Built around a real-world commercial strip mall, this app puts professional electrical illustrations, NEC code look-up, interactive calculators, step-by-step design calculation guides, a project checklist, and an electrical glossary in one place — offline, on iPhone and iPad.
