Electrical Draughtsman

Learn Electrical Draughtsman skills with AutoCAD, plant layout wiring, and panel design. Job‑oriented training for ITI and Diploma Electrical students.

An Electrical Draughtsman plays a crucial role in the power, EPC, and oil & gas industries by preparing accurate substation drawings, switchyard drawings, plant earthing and lightning layouts, cable routing layouts, and lighting layouts. These drawings form the foundation of electrical projects, ensuring safety, efficiency, and compliance with industry standards. Choosing this career is ideal for ITI Electrical students who want to move beyond workshop jobs into office‑based technical roles with higher growth potential.

At Petromech is one of the best electrical design and draughting institute in India, students receive Vadodara’s best draughtsman training with a practical approach. We do not cover only CAD drafting, but also the engineering fundamentals that work in the background of drawings, giving learners a strong base in electrical systems. This ensures complete industry readiness and prepares students for real‑world projects in EPC companies, power plants, and renewable energy sectors.

Along with the Electrical Draughtsman course, Petromech also offers advanced programs such as Electrical Design, Power System Design, Solar Plant Design, and Control Panel Design. With 100% placement support by the institute, learners gain confidence to step into roles like electrical draftsman, design assistant, or junior engineer, and build a long‑term career path in the global EPC and energy sector.
