    I just called my reseller, he couldn't tell me a price. Anyone got a
    ballpark?

    I see.  It's more than PTC's Routed
    Systems Designer.  Too bad.  I'm not a PTC fan, however, RSD is far
    more impressive for the same price.  I was hoping AutoCAD Electrical would
    be competitively priced.  Heck, I already have AutoCAD.

     

    Unfortunately it is geared for one niche.  As
    someone who does electrical, plumbing, and p&id, it would only cover
    1/3 of my needs for a whole lot of do-ra-mi.  Then I've got to get another
    program to do the rest.  Ouch!

     

    In the end, it looks like a strong program,
    especially if you're already familiar with AutoCAD.

    What version of Acad do you have. You should be able to get an upgrade price from whatever version you are currently running.

    I would say the main benefit as I have found is
    that it cuts drawing creation time by about 25% and

    drawing revision time by around 50% or more. 
    The drawing revision time really goes down when a client

    changes the tagging format of items, i.e. relays
    CR-124 and CR-345 are now tagged AR (Alarm Relay) and

    MFTR (Master Fuel Trip Relay) the beauty of
    Electrical is that all of the child contacts also update
    automatically.
