How to Use Autocad electrical on the student version of Autocad

edwardyoung2001 — Fri, 13 Sep 2019 17:23:06 GMT

I read that in newer versions of AutoCAD the electrical package has been bundled in but I can't find the menu to use it.

thats only available if you subscribe to autocad

for students you need to request a license for it like you did for autocad here: https://www.autodesk.com/education/free-software/autocad-electrical

" We’re sorry, this product is available for educational institutions on multiple computers and/or network servers only. It is not available for students and educators on a personal device. For educational access to Autodesk software for your personal use, please visit our menu of available products and services here."

Makes it hard to do homework at home.

@ahmed_helalley AutoCADELECTRICAL is a separate program that requires a separate install on your PC to use (and for EDU students, a separate license request).

Does that explain your me-too query? Or d you have a different problem altogether?

So how do i make a license request ?
I already installed the students version of AutoCAD and got a one year access and it is renewable as long as i prove i am a student but i wanted to have a student version of AutoCAD Electrical because it saves much more time when it comes to electrical design and electrical related tasks.

You start the process all over again, from scratch, for AutoCAD ELECTRICAL: the two offerings are unrelated when it comes to EDU licenses, unless you see AutoCAFELECTRICAL at your Autodesk account ready to download/install.

Ask EDU Support for more details here if you wish https://www.autodesk.com/education/support/edu-contact-us-form

But, when I went to download the Education version and it showed all of the products available, there was no separate Autocad Electrical download link. However, the link to download Autocad said "Includes access to Autocad Architecture, Electrical..."

Okay, can someone help actually solve this issue? Every student in the world going for electrical engineering needs this. Don't put a bad taste in the mouth of us, students, we're the future lively hood for your company. If we all end up disliking you because of bad product support, we're going to express that opinion at every company we work at.

In these forums, we are users helping users. Autodesk isn't roaming these forums looking for posts like yours.
There are two point in this thread.
1. AutoCAD Electrical for education is ONLY AVAILABLE for labs/network license. NOT individual users.
2. There's a link to contact the edu-department of Autodesk. Have you tried contacting them?

Was pretty well hidden, but here's how I was able to through my orgs license.

I was searching all over the site and forums for awhile now. I've finally found it. (may not work for all)

I went on the home page, logged in first of all. Then there's the little account icon at the top of the website, I clicked on it. Then I clicked on the "products and services" link. Then I saw the "AutoCAD - including specialized toolsets". There was a "view items" next to it. When I clicked on it, it FINALLY displayed AutoCAD electrical and other toolkits I don't need. I was then able to download it from there.

I hope this helps anyone else.

So, you went to https://manage.autodesk.com ?
And this is an educational license of AutoCAD Electrical, stand-alone?

Exact same problem here. I went around in circles looking for Autocad electrical, thinking it was in Autocad 2021 like it states on the download page. Thank you for the solution.

Thank you so much for the tip, this has been a long hour of circling around for the "included" electrical as stated on the download page. 🙂
