A real board

One main board, read by Board Reader.

A real project drawing with names removed: four busbar sections, two incomers and a transfer switch. Here is what came back.

Minutes, not an hourReading a board like this by hand takes an hour or more. Board Reader did it in a few minutes.
TotalsOne section's feeders add up to 343.6 kW, but the drawing prints 298.9 kW — 15% lower.
M2-23Feeder number used twice on the same board.
M3-1Printed power and printed current don't agree (85 kW at 102.8 A).
M3-1 · M3-3 · M4-2150 A breakers shown with different trip curves (C and D). Confirm which is intended.
M2-13Protective device drawn, but no load named.
IncomersTwo incomers carry the same caption.
ATSTransfer switch drawn in the open position.
BoardEnclosure data missing from the drawing.
Review points are questions for the estimator or designer, not verdicts. You accept or dismiss each one.
How it works

Drawing in, specification out.

01

Upload the drawing

A PDF of the single-line diagram. Vector PDFs exported from CAD read best; several boards in one file are fine.

02

Review what was read

Every feeder, device and cable in a table you can edit, with a layout sketch and the review points that need a second look.

03

Download the specification

A bill of materials with enclosure and accessories, ready to check, price and send.

Who it's for

For the people who quote, supply and maintain boards.

Panel builders

Quote more boards with the same people. Start from a read drawing instead of a blank sheet.

Electrical wholesalers

Answer project enquiries faster and turn drawings into quotable lists for your counter and key accounts.

Estimators and contractors

Catch drawing inconsistencies before they become variations — duplicate numbers, totals that don't add up.

Maintenance teams

Identify old equipment from a photo and find what replaces it, on industrial and commercial sites.

You stay in control

It reads and checks. You decide.

VoltAmpix doesn't design boards or replace the designer. It does the reading and the cross-checking, so your time goes into the decisions.

✓Nothing is hidden. Every device, rating and cable read from the drawing is shown in a table you can edit.
✓Uncertain readings are marked. Symbols partly hidden or cut off are flagged for you to confirm.
✓Estimates say so. Enclosure and accessory quantities are labelled as estimates.
✓Check before you order. AI can be wrong — confirm every line against the drawing and the manufacturer's data.
