About SmartDesign
SmartDesign radically simplifies the design process: just right-click on an area to design and get automatic calculations of all equipment sizing requirements per the National Electrical Code® (NEC). It’s like having a professional engineer who has memorized the NEC and all the manufacturers’ catalogs, right on your desktop. Comprehensive, integrated reports provide valuable insight and alerts to problem areas. You can also ensure consistent standards with reusable design sheets set to specific parameters. Avoid reinventing the wheel with customizable design sheets. So, the next time you need a system design for another hospital, for example, start from an already-created design sheet—instead of from scratch. Eliminate the frustrating tedium of tracking and complying with countless NEC regulations and documentation requirements.
