What's new in which version?

Available since January 25, 2026

• Free rotation of components on the situation diagram: all components on the situation diagram can be manually rotated.
• General component without control circuit in the distribution box: in the distribution box, it is possible to place and use a general component without a control circuit to "switch" other components in the project.
• Multiple selection of components in the distribution box: by selecting multiple security components in the distribution box together (by dragging with the mouse or selecting with the mouse and CTRL key), certain attributes can now be adjusted at once for all these components. For example, for multiple automatic switches together, the nominal current, cable type, cable section, etc. can be adjusted together.
• Multiple sockets displayed differently: socket boxes with more than 3 sockets under 1 cover are now displayed as a single socket with a number next to it indicating the number of sockets.
• Order of RCDs on single-line diagram: RCDs are drawn in alphabetical and/or numerical order on the single-line diagram.
• Bugs fixed: some bug fixes

• Free naming of security components: automatic switches can now also be freely named. By default, Schematicals will still use the alphabetical naming (A, B, C,...), but this can be deviated from by manually entering a different name.
• Copy-paste function everywhere: the copy-paste function, which was previously only possible with security components in the distribution box, can now also be used on all structures on the floor plan and all components on the situation diagram.
• Multiple selection for terminals on the cabinet design: by selecting multiple terminals on the cabinet design together, the characteristics or attributes of these terminals can be adjusted together.
• Comment field adjusted: the comment field in the installation data, which is printed on the cover page, has been adjusted so that a continuous text can be typed instead of line by line.
• Backup when changing version number: when changing the version number, the option will be offered to make a backup of the diagrams under the previous version number.
• Bugs fixed: some bug fixes

Available since February 19, 2024

• Table with power circuits for distribution board: per distribution board or per design of a distribution board, an automatically generated table with power circuits can be printed or exported to MS Excel. This table shows the name, label, and description, which are automatically taken over from the labels of the connected components. The description can be manually adjusted
• Favorite domotica modules: in the "Domotica" tab, favorite modules of all types of domotica modules can now also be saved and used across projects.
• Favorite inverter, batteries, and solar panels: favorite inverters, solar panels, and batteries can be saved and reused across projects.
• Maximum modules per row in cabinet design increased: the maximum number of modules per row in the design of a distribution board has been increased to 40 modules.
• Multi-select function of shared lighting circuit changed: by selecting one lighting point of a shared lighting circuit in combination with the CTRL key, all lighting points of this shared circuit are now selected. When changing the power circuit, the shared circuits are preserved, which was not the case before
• Helper conductors can be added to cable types: with cable types, it is now possible to add helper conductors (number and wire cross-section) to include, for example, cables of the type 4x60+1x75mm2.
• Bugs fixed: several bug fixes

• Extra free information on cover page: extra information or comments can now be displayed on the cover page.
• Zoom with mouse wheel: using the mouse wheel in combination with the CTRL key, it is now possible to zoom in and out on the schemas.
• Phase distribution also on cabinet design: the phase distribution over the automatic switches is now also shown on the cabinet design.
• Expansion of phase distribution options: until now, the phase distribution for an automatic switch could be specified in one fixed order. From now on, the option has been expanded to include all possible orders of phase distribution.
• Expansion of short-circuit current options: in the previously fixed choice of short-circuit current for an automatic switch, 4.5kA was added to the options. A free input is still possible, of course.
• Expansion of cabinet width in design: the maximum number of modules per row in a distribution board (for design) has been expanded to 35 modules.
• Bugs fixed: several bug fixes

Available since December 5, 2023

• Identification of distribution boards adjustable: the previously automatically assigned identification or prefix for additional distribution boards (B:, C:,...) can now be adjusted and freely chosen.
• Expansion of charging station attributes: the manufacturer, model, and serial number can be specified in the attributes of a charging station and will be printed on the single-wire schema.
• Lines can be drawn on floor plan, cable route, and block diagram: the free construction drawing has been adapted to drawing lines whose thickness and color can be adjusted.
• Favorite texts on floor plan: texts for the floor plan can now be saved as favorite text and reused.
• Types of connections added: you can now choose between a single-phase 230V, 2x230V, 1x400V+N, a two-phase 2x230+N, a three-phase 3x230V and a three-phase 3x400V+N as the type of connection.
• Bugs fixed: Some bug fixes

• Smaller symbols in distribution board: The symbols of the components in the distribution board have been reduced
• Problem with favorites solved: In the previous version, a problem had crept into the favorite loss current switches and automatic switches.
• Bugs fixed: Some bug fixes

Available since November 1, 2023

• Design distribution board: Assemble your distribution board(s) as they are in reality or will be assembled.
• Print labels: From the design of the distribution boards, it is possible to print labels to a physical printer (A4, A3,...), pdf or to an Excel file (.csv) to print the labels with a label printer.
• Installer address on printouts: The owner's signature was removed (no longer mandatory according to A.R.E.I.) and replaced by the installer's address.
• Length of doors, windows, stairs,... on floor plan while drawing: On a calibrated floor plan, not only the dimensions of the walls are now displayed while drawing, but also those of other elements such as doors, windows, stairs,...
• Parts list adjusted: it is now possible to indicate whether non-connected components (such as sockets, switches, automats,...) are included in the parts list or not.
• Bugs fixed: Some bug fixes

• Scroll function: It is now possible to scroll through the different pages of the single-wire diagram and the print preview with the mouse "roller".
• Adjustment of connection cable data: specifying the characteristics of the connection cable (cable between meter box and distribution board) has been moved from "upstream" cable on the loss current switch to the general installation data.
• Adjustment of single-wire diagram of connection with multiple connection points: The connection to a next distribution board with multiple connection points (e.g. directly to the various automatic switches of that distribution board instead of to 1 component "on top" of the distribution board) is now no longer repeated per automat but is drawn as 1 connection.
• More on 1 page of the single-wire diagram: The white space on the right on the pages of the single-wire diagram was shortened, so that more can be drawn on 1 page.
• Bugs fixed: Some bug fixes

• The installation file of version 1.019 contained an error for those who installed Schematicals for the first time on their computer. To provide a solution for these users, we have put version 1.020 online.

• "Old Installation": The possibility to indicate "Old installation" on the single-wire diagram (per circuit) has been added.
• Adjustment multiselect in distribution board: It is now also possible to select multiple components in the distribution board together via the CTRL key and the mouse button and not just via the mouse drag function.
• Clarification in adjustment window: In the "adjustment window" where the order of switchings, kWh counters, transformers and junction boxes per line can be adjusted, it is now clearly indicated which components move together.
• Bugs fixed: Some bug fixes

• Junction boxes or connection boxes: It is now possible to place junction boxes and assign them to the electrical diagrams.
• Multiple symbols can be changed color at the same time: After a multiselect (via mouse drag or mouse button-CTRL combination), multiple symbols can be displayed in a color at the same time.
