Tiivistelmä
This thesis was commissioned by Valmet Automation. For this thesis I chose three commercial electrical engineering programs and compare these programs with the information catered from manuals and the internet. Also, information about the standard that influences engineering is examined and reported the on this thesis.
The following three programs were selected to be analysed in this thesis: CADS, E3 and EPLAN. With all of them programs engineering can be done with good quality and the basic functions there are quite the same.
In the first phase of this thesis project information was gathered on the programs. This information was gathered from programs manuals and internet web pages. After the first stage E3 programs was dropped from further analyses, because of limited time and resources.
The second phase was to take a part of both programs basic training. The trainings target was to get a better knowledge of the program and get an better understanding of how they would fit for engineering Valmet Automations automation systems cabinet.
In the last part of this thesis project, EPLAN and CADS are compared to the information that was gathered from manuals and the internet, but also to the practical experience knowledge that has been gained from training.
