Automated Utility Design™ (AUD) combines design and documentation with rules-driven workflows and analysis for utility, telecommunications, and electrical distribution design—all based on the power of AutoCAD®. 

Improve design accuracy, analyze, and optimize network designs for greater performance and reliability, and deliver more consistent and coordinated documentation—all integrated with the utility enterprise.

Substation Design Suite™ (SDS) consists of two powerful electrical substation design modules. Harnessing the power of Autodesk Inventor and AutoCAD Electrical, SDS gives you specialized substation design tools for intelligent 3D design and intelligent wiring design.

Physical for AutoCAD is built on the power of Automated Utility Design™ giving users the capabilities of substation design with the familiarity of AUD. Tools include: Simultaneous 2D and 3D Design Workflows,​ Superior Brownfield and Geospatial Workflows​, Integral Real-Time Design Validation​, Standards and Rules-Based Design, Design Portability and BIM Workflows ​and Native Integration with Enterprise Systems.
