WireSketch vs PanelMap

Design your electrical layout on a photo of your actual wall: sockets, switches, lights, EV charger. Hand your electrician a plan they can price. Scan, safety zones, panels, solar. HOW IT WORKS Photo your wall, start on a blank canvas, or scan the room. Set dimensions in cm and your region's zones and heights appear. Place fixtures. Export to PDF, PNG or CSV, as an annotated photo or a clean IEC 60617 schematic. SCAN YOUR ROOM (Pro) Pan a LiDAR iPhone or iPad once around the room. Every wall becomes a measured canvas with doors and windows at true size and position. Review the measurements before the plan is created. ROOM SKETCH SHARING Export a project as a calibrated Room Sketch: photo plus scale, in an open format PipeSketch reads, so plumbing starts from the same room. HOMES: GROUP ROOMS UNDER ONE ROOF Group rooms under a House, Flat, Garage or Commercial property. GPS resolves the electrical region; every room shares one code. CIRCUIT PANELS (Pro) Lay out every breaker with label, amps and curve. The wand fills the panel from your fixtures: appliances get dedicated circuits, EV chargers the right amperage. Live warnings flag overloads. Main and sub panels, plus a Panel Report PDF. THE RENOVATION BRIEF (Pro) The full PDF for your electrician: cover, wall sketches, materials list, and a "Questions for my electrician" checklist. 50+ FIXTURE TYPES Sockets, switches, dimmers, lights, Cat6/TV outlets, floor heating, kitchen appliances, outdoor sockets, EV chargers, smoke detectors, RCD/GFCI, distribution boards. SAFETY ZONES BY REGION Four standards, named by the standard, not the region: DIN 18015 with VDE 0100 (DE, a start for AT and NL), BS 7671 (UK, 18th edition, no amendment modeled), NEC base (US planning reference, not jurisdiction compliant), AS/NZS 3000 (AU, NZ). Wet rooms apply IEC 60364 Zone 0/1/2. Outdoor: IP65/IP67 and 60 cm burial. Limits we don't hide. France (NF C 15-100), Spain, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland and Canada aren't separate selectors. Layout planning only. NEC state amendments and AFCI rules are out of scope. A licensed electrician must verify before installation. ROOM TYPES AND TEMPLATES (Pro) Dry room, wet room, kitchen and outdoor, each with heights and installation rules. 17 layouts, home to commercial. CABLE AND MATERIAL ESTIMATE Per circuit cable type and size (NYM-J for EU, Twin & Earth for UK, NM-B for US, TPS for AUS), total length, conduit, plus material and labor costs. KNOWLEDGE BASE 36 cited entries on standards, symbols and formulas. Browse the library and read the core articles free. The full set and four converters (Watts to Amps, AWG to mm², voltage drop, solar yield) are Pro. SOLAR PLANNER (separate purchase) Plan your solar system from a satellite snapshot: panel packing, yearly yield, inverter and battery sizing. ELECTRICIAN MODE (Business) Turn a planned property into a branded customer offer with your logo, letterhead, and materials and labor priced from the plan. Business includes everything in Pro. WIRESKETCH PRO Free: up to 2 projects, 5 fixtures each. Homes, core Knowledge Base articles and the daily highlight are free. Pro is a one time purchase: room scanning, iCloud Sync, Renovation Brief PDF, Circuit Panels with Panel Report PDF, unlimited projects and fixtures, multi wall, templates, perspective correction, full Knowledge Base. Solar Planner and Business are separate. Legacy pack buyers keep everything. 9 LANGUAGES: EN, DE, FR, NL, TR, ES, IT, PL, PT. PRIVACY. Your planning data stays on your device. iCloud Sync (Pro) stays off until you switch it on in About. It syncs through your private iCloud account, which we can't read, and you can export or delete it any time. No WireSketch account. The free version is ad supported. Any purchase removes ads. WireSketch is a planning tool. All electrical work must be carried out by a qualified electrician per local regulations. EULA: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

PanelMap answers one question fast: "which breaker controls this?" Stop guessing, flipping switches, and labeling breakers with masking tape. PanelMap turns your electrical panel into a searchable map of your home — so you always know what to turn off before you touch a wire, swap an outlet, or deal with a tripped breaker. HOW IT WORKS • Set up your panel in minutes — numbered slots (North America) or DIN rail layout (Europe and beyond) • Label each breaker with the rooms, outlets, and appliances it controls • Search any room, device, or outlet and instantly see the right breaker • Mark breakers as confirmed, likely, or unknown as you learn more over time BUILT FOR REAL LIFE • No electrical knowledge required — plain language, no jargon • Works with incomplete information — label what you know, fill in the rest later • Supports single, double (2-pole), and tandem breakers • Fully offline — your panel data stays on your device, no account needed • Works with any panel layout, anywhere in the world PRO FEATURES • Unlimited panels • Export your panel as a PDF for quick reference • Floor maps — sketch your home and pin outlets, switches, and appliances to see which breaker affects them • Reverse lookup — standing in a room, find out what controls it Whether you're prepping for an emergency, renovating, or just tired of flipping every breaker to find the right one, PanelMap gives you clarity and confidence in seconds.
