An electrical plan is the one drawing almost every renovation needs and almost no room planner offers. RoomSketch3D has a dedicated Symbols panel: outlets and switches place with a tap on any wall — interior walls too, with an In/Out toggle to choose which room sees them — alongside lights, wall safes, mirrors, and telecom and security symbols.
The Circuit line tool connects them. Tap each symbol in a run — an outlet, a switch, a light, a valve, any symbol including your own uploads — and a dashed line links them to show they share one circuit back to the panel. Lines are numbered automatically, follow a symbol when you move it, keep their place if you delete one, and can be re-routed later. Undo steps back one hop at a time while you draw.
Symbols are colourable with badges and always appear on the 2D plan and in images, PDFs, and prints. A symbols-only export preset produces a clean electrical layer, and you can upload your own PNG symbols — an electrical panel, an HVAC unit, an appliance — into a personal library to place like furniture.
What you can do
Outlets and switches on any wall
Tap a wall to place; interior walls get an In/Out toggle for which room faces the device.
Telecom and security
Phone jack, data jack, Wi-Fi access point, and CCTV camera symbols alongside the electrical set.
Circuit lines
Numbered runs that attach to real symbols, follow moves, and can be re-routed.
Your own symbols
Upload PNGs of panels, HVAC units, or appliances to a personal library.
Symbols-only export
A dedicated preset that outputs just the electrical layer.
On paper
Symbols always appear in images, PDFs, and prints.

Frequently asked questions
Can I put an outlet on an interior wall?
Yes. Outlets, switches, mirrors, and wall safes place on interior walls as well as exterior ones, and an In/Out toggle picks which side of the wall the device faces.
Do circuit lines move with the symbols?
Yes. A circuit line attaches to real symbols, so it follows when you move one and keeps its place if you delete one. Select a line to re-route a point onto a different device.
Can I add symbols that are not in the library?
Yes. Upload your own PNG symbols — an electrical panel, an HVAC unit, an appliance — and place them like any other item. They work with circuit lines too.
