Autodesk electrical (toolset) is another (standalone) programm, you can not "add it to LT".
You need a license (not part of your LT rental), download&Install the Electrical program.

Toolsets are part of the full Autocad subscription package, allowing users to work within multiple disciplines and only need to pay for one subscription. Autocad LT is a general-purpose design package and there have never been separate programs for Electrical LT, Architectural LT, MEP LT etc as was the case with full Autocad where you used to have to buy individual units. There is nothing stopping you creating Architectural or Electrical drawings using LT, but there are no special tools to help you, you have to figure all that out yourself.
US$400/yr LT is the wrong program.
US$1610/yr AutoCAD is the correct program that offers toolsets, including electrical
viewing the answers about LT does not include Electrical Toolset, i just dont understand why autocad says its included on the electrical toolset webpage, ?.
there is something wrong with the webpage,
autocad electrica its different form electrcial toolset ,,,

There us no word about "LT does incl. Electrical Toolset".
One AutoCAD license model does,
LT not.
Away from ACAD Electrical, you can create electrical drawings with autocad and also with LT, but efficiently? sure not.

It is inaccurate information, why mention autocad LT and speak in the plural about subscriptions? Which autocad subscriptions include it and which don't? The title says specifically "Specialized electrical drawing software"
Autocad should correct this text or specify directly that autocad LT does not include the toolset, not just omit it
Electrical drawings can be done efficiently in AutoCAD LT or AutoCAD.
Did you happen to notice the bold text that says the toolset is included with AutoCAD? It does not say "and AutoCAD LT".
with autocad lt 2022 it gives options for installing a couple of toolsets, but how do I ask...
I might not have posted in a thread about an earlier version.
This page is for the 'one AutoCAD' lic,
and it isn't a toolset.
No toolset for your LT version.
Sorry
