About Solidworks Electrical 2021 Download
Solidworks Electrical 2021 Download is a electrical design suite integrated with SOLIDWORKS from Dassault Systèmes. This release is used by machine builders working across mechanical and electrical teams to draw electrical schematics and place them directly into the 3D mechanical model with wire routing. Here you get the full Solidworks Electrical 2021 package plus a practical setup walkthrough written from commissioning experience.
Key Capabilities of Solidworks Electrical 2021 Download
- Synchronized 2D schematic and 3D cabinet data
- Cable and wire routing in the 3D model
- Automatic BOM and wire lists
- Library data for standard components
- Collaboration between ECAD and MCAD teams in one platform
- Single-line and multi-line schematic drafting
System Requirements
- Windows 10/11 64-bit (Professional recommended)
- 8 GB RAM minimum, 16 GB recommended
- 25–50 GB free disk space depending on installed options
- A matching SOLIDWORKS installation is required
- 1920×1080 display or larger
Installation Notes
- Extract the downloaded archive with the password shown at the bottom of this page, using a recent version of WinRAR or 7-Zip.
- Run the installer as administrator and keep the default path unless your company standard requires otherwise.
- If a controller or robot connection will be used, allow the software through the Windows firewall when prompted.
- Temporarily disable antivirus and Windows Defender real-time protection during setup — installers that copy licensed components are frequently false-flagged.
- After installation, re-enable antivirus protection and add the program folder to the allowed list if your policy requires it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need SOLIDWORKS as well?
Yes, Electrical runs as an add-in to the SOLIDWORKS platform.
Can EPLAN projects be imported?
Project exchange is possible with review; standards mapping decides the effort.
Is a license dongle required?
Licensing follows the SOLIDWORKS model with activation or dongle options.
Does it run in a virtual machine?
Yes with graphics resources; cable routing in large assemblies wants a physical workstation.

Tips from Real Projects
A machine builder merged its ECAD and MCAD libraries so a sensor ordered in the schematic appeared in the 3D model the same day; cabinet clashes vanished from commissioning. Electrical and mechanical agree on data — automatically — instead of in meetings.
