Standard electrical symbols
Ask for outlets, GFCI and 240V receptacles, single-pole and three-way switches, dimmers, ceiling fixtures, smoke detectors, junction boxes, panels, and sub-panels, drawn the way electrical plans normally draw them.
Lay Out an Electrical Plan on Your Floor Plan
Upload a floor plan and describe where outlets, switches, fixtures, and the panel should go, and the tool draws standard electrical symbols over it. It is a planning aid for talking to your electrician — not a substitute for one.

A clear layout to hand to your electrician
Decide where things go on paper, while moving them is still free.
Works on the plan you already have
Upload a PNG or JPG of your floor plan, up to 10MB. No plan yet? The floor plan creator generates one from a description first.
Circuit grouping and labels
Describe which items should share a circuit and where the panel sits, and the drawing shows labelled circuit groupings, so the intended distribution is legible to whoever reads it next.
An image to brief from, not a CAD file
Each result is one raster image, saved to your designs and viewable full size. There is no DXF or vector export, so an electrician or engineer redraws the layout in CAD for the real drawing set.
Room-by-room planning
Pairs with the kitchen floor plan tool for the rooms where outlet and appliance placement matters most.
How to make an electrical plan
Start from a floor plan
Upload a clear PNG or JPG of the plan, up to 10MB. Clean line work and readable room labels give the symbols something to line up with.
Describe outlets and switches
Go room by room in the prompt: where receptacles, switches, and fixtures should go, with counts or spacing where you know them.
Note circuits and the panel
Say which items you expect to share a circuit and where the panel sits, then generate and check the result against your plan.
Review it with a licensed pro
Regenerate if a symbol lands in the wrong place, then take the image to a licensed electrician, who prepares the drawings that actually get built and inspected.

Browse the Help Center or open a support ticket from your account.
Visit the Help CenterA drawing that shows where outlets, switches, light fixtures, circuits, and the distribution panel go in a building. It tells the electrician what is wanted where, and it is normally part of the documentation for new construction or a significant renovation.
A planning aid: not a construction document, not code-compliant or permit-ready, and no substitute for a licensed professional. A licensed electrician or engineer must prepare and sign off the final electrical drawings, checked against local code, before you apply for a permit or start work.
Deciding placement, walking the layout with your household, pricing a job, and giving your electrician a written brief instead of a verbal one. Catching a missing outlet on screen costs nothing; catching it after drywall does.
The common electrical-plan symbols — receptacles including GFCI and 240V, single-pole, three-way and four-way switches, dimmers, ceiling and wall fixtures, smoke detectors, junction boxes, panels, and sub-panels.
That is set by the electrical code in force where you are, and it varies by country, room type, and wall length. Do not take a number from this page — ask your electrician or check your local code, because getting it wrong fails inspection.
An electrical plan covers power distribution as a whole — outlets, circuits, and the panel. A lighting plan focuses on fixture placement, switching, and control zones for the ceiling.
