Update history​

CYPELEC Electrical Mechanisms

General improvements

Version 2021.g of CYPE’s programs is a closing version of the 2021 version.

As well as the new features and improvements expressly indicated in each version of CYPE software, process optimisation involving internal updates for all our programs is normally included. In each revision, all programs are systematically checked and changes are made to improve their performance, therefore, we recommend that our users (in this case those of v.2021) always update their version to the latest one, regardless of the country for which they are using CYPE software or the language in which it is installed.

Shortcuts to other applications

Similarly to the 2021.c version of CYPE Architecture, in this version (2021.e) shortcuts have been implemented in the programs CYPELEC Electrical Mechanisms, CYPELEC Distribution and CYPELEC CORE, allowing other applications to be opened in order to continue with the development of the project.

Selecting these shortcuts first exports the results obtained in the user’s current program to the BIM project and then opens the selected application, which makes it quicker to continue with the development of the project.

In this way, the user will have guided assistance which will allow them to move from program to program to complete the electrical installation. A design can be carried out starting from the architectural model right through to the analysis of the low, medium and high voltage installation without having to search for the application that continues with the development of the project.

Emergency lighting

Users can now enter emergency lighting, thereby increasing the number of elements that can be entered into the program.

The lights are entered in a similar way as are light points and other electrical mechanisms.

Representation options

A new functionality to represent labels in elements has been added.

In general options, the Representation options icon incorporates three tabs:

  • References
    Allows users to assign the default reference for the different elements.
  • Tag (new tool)
    Allows, for each element, for users to make a customised selection of the properties that are to be represented on screen and later on the floor drawings.
  • Symbols
    Allows users to edit custom symbols that can later be assigned to the different elements.

Element references with the Portuguese design code

When the Portuguese standard is selected in CYPELEC Electrical Mechanisms, the references that are used in Portugal for the different elements that are entered are loaded automatically.

Export the bill of quantities to the BIM project

The documents that are exported to the BIM project are complemented with the bill of quantities and the file in FIEBDC-3 format (.bc3) of the electrical installation.

Default reference panel for elements

The "References" option has been included in "General settings". This option opens a panel that includes the references of the elements that are entered in the program with omitted values, which can be modified by users.

"Bill of quantities" tab

The "Bill of quantities" tab has been included in the program. Now, users have a set of tools to generate and manage the bill of quantities of the elements that have been entered in the program.

Percentage of the bill of quantities obtained from the BIM model

A new column has been added in the bill of quantities table that indicates the percentage of the total cost that comes from the quantity detail lines that have been generated based on elements of the BIM model. The use of quantities linked to components of the BIM model helps to trace them more easily and, because of this, this type of content is beginning to be valued in calls for tender.

The visibility of this column in the bill of quantities table is optional and can be activated or deactivated using the "%BIM" option in the toolbar of the "Bill of quantities" tab.

Thesaurus descriptors

A new field is added in the project units and chapters that establishes a relationship between the element and a series of key terms. This way, concepts can be searched for using these terms. This option is available in the price table of the project and in each cost database.

The "Search" tool in the toolbar has been updated and concepts can now be found using their key terms.

Thesaurus descriptors are part of the specification of the standard interchange construction cost database format FIEBDC-3 (.bc3). Consequently, when cost databases or bills of quantities based on this format are imported, the key terms will also be incorporated.

Mapping – cost database correspondence

When the mapping file is edited, a warning message is shown alongside concepts whose code is not contained in the active cost database. This way, users can be sure that all the project units that are generated will have an associated price, in accordance with the selected database, when the quantities are updated in the "Bill of quantities" tab of the application.

Import chapter structure

An option has been added in the file creation and editing panel of the mapping file with which the chapter structure of a file in FIEBDC-3 (.bc3) can be imported. Using this tool, the chapter structure from a cost database or a previous bill of quantities can be used more easily.

When the file is read in FIEBDC-3 format (.bc3), all concepts that are not defined as chapters (job items, unit prices...) will be ignored.
