This thesis includes a description of the project flow for our projects at Semcon. The emphasis is on designing a manual for elMaster Concept. The project flow provides several minor and major elements plotting schedules for this project and the establishment of a manual. When a schedule is drawn, lists and tables with components and connections can be created. This is done to better manage drawings and make changes. These diagrams and tables are used in product manufacturing, testings, controls. It can be edited during processing to finished product. elMaster helps to create a structure in the project through its aspects in the treeview. This is connected to the Design for easy connecting schedules for the project and its various components. This thesis also touches rendering of certain parts of a remote control system and a FAT-testing (Factory Acceptance Test) of a 480V switchgear. for the entire flow of a project and to make it easier to get an intelligible idea of how a project should be built in the most optimal way. It gives an idea of how various schedules, lists and tables used in real time and edited to get the proper documentation to the customer. The manual is designed for inexperienced elMaster. They can learn the program with the help of an example that is based on a real project. In addition to the example are all detailed information in order to advance in a project without much supervision. The thesis includes information on various components that may be included in a larger project. Therefore additional information on technical background. To acquire a better understanding of the remote control system and 480V switchgear, we were seeking information in ABB Handbok Elkraft [1] and Elkraftshandboken Elkraftsystem [2] as reported in a section of the thesis.

I detta examensarbete har en undersökning utförts på konsultföretaget ÅF, och deras arbetssätt inom dokumentation och kontrollanläggningar för att utreda om det fanns effektiviseringspotentialer. Undersökningen har i största del innefattat intervjuer med verksamma konsulter inom kontrollanläggningar och elmontage på transformatorstationer. Konsulterna arbetade som konstruktörer och tog fram ritningar främst till kontrollutrustningar. Resultatet från intervjuerna analyserades för att sedan dra slutsatser om effektiviseringsmöjligheter inom verksamheten. Olika kontor i verksamheten undersöktes och arbetssättet varierade på de olika kontoren. En skillnad var det CAD-program som användes och ett förslag var att använda samma program. Effektiviseringspotentialer fanns också genom att återanvända kretsscheman till viss del från föregående projekt. Ett annat förslag var därför att införa databaser där kretsscheman kan samlas in och delas mellan de olika kontoren. / In this thesis, a study has been carried out for the consulting company ÅF, and their work method within documentation and control facilities to investigate whether there were any potential for efficiency improvements. The investigation has largely involved interviews with operating consultants within the control facility on substations. The consultants worked as electrical designers and produced drawings mainly for control equipment. The results of the interviews were analyzed to draw conclusions about the efficiency potentials within the business. Different offices in the business were examined and the work approach varied between the offices. One difference was the CAD-software used and a suggestion was to use the same program. Efficiency improvement potentials were also by re-using electrical schematics to some extent from previous projects and another suggestion was to establish databases where electrical schematics can be gathered and shared between the different offices.
