EPLAN Pro Panel: Building a control cabinet from scratch #1 (without Rittal)
Building an enclosure from scratch in EPLAN Pro Panel — without a Rittal library. Part 1 of my series: Importing and preparing a 3D STEP file.
In this first part of my new video series, I'll show you how to import a third-party 3D STEP file into EPLAN Pro Panel and assign the appropriate function definitions to all components. 💡
Perfect for anyone who doesn't work with standard Rittal enclosures but wants to use their own enclosures or third-party products.
You'll learn step by step:
✅ How to correctly import an .STP file into EPLAN Pro Panel
✅ Which function definitions are important for the mounting plate, door, frame, and covers
✅ How to prepare your 3D data for further development in Pro Panel
This lays the foundation for your entire enclosure — clean, logical, and compliant with standards.

I'm always happy to receive suggestions and content requests.
