Caneco ONE: The all-in-one software suite for electrical engineering
On April 6, 2023, ALPI announced joining forces with ETAP, establishing ETAP as world's leading electrical design and operations digital twin for infrastructure, building and industry.
As a result, ETAP expands its software portfolio to include the Caneco software suite.
This combined venture will provide innovative software solutions for electrical systems accross the lifecycle, from design and engineering to operations and maintenance, empowering users to increase productivity, collaboration, efficiency, and enabling their energy transition journey.
Caneco ONE brings together a set of interconnected software that complement and interface with each other in order to design low and high voltage installations in a digital model (BIM), including infrastructure and public lighting networks.
Caneco ONE proposes the main functions of 2D/3D modeling, calculation and schematics in order to offer users all the tools they need to manage a complete project.
It also enables communication and collaborative work and ensures data integrity throughout the implementation of a BIM project.
Caneco ONE is a comprehensive software suite which aims at meeting all the collaborators’ needs in electrical engineering to enable them to design, operate and test their installations.

Main functionalities
Caneco ONE embraces a set of interconnected software organized into 3 categories:
BIM electrical modeling
Caneco ONE allows the design of an electrical installation in AutoCAD® and Revit® graphical platforms. It also enables automated cable routing and metering as well as cable tray sizing. It ensures an active exchange of electrical data between the digital model and our calculation and schematics software solutions.
In this way, you keep your favorite digital tool (Revit® or AutoCAD®) and communicate with other participants without any loss of information; whether they are equipped with either one or the other tools, or with an IFC platform.
Calculation and sizing
Caneco ONE includes several software packages to perform automated calculations, sizing and selection of LV/HV equipment. These calculations make use of complete manufacturers’ catalogues and are performed in compliance with the current applicable national and international standards. Caneco ONE also allows an automated design of single-line diagrams for high voltage installations, as well as a cabling synoptic for low voltage installations.
• LV calculation • MV and HV calculation • Selectivity analysis with Time-Current Curves • Public Lighting calculation
CAD
Caneco ONE integrates AutoCAD® OEM platform to enable you to create 2D/3D implantation plans, diagrams, cabling synoptic and to provide the complete documentation of the project.
A suite which serves collaborative work
Caneco ONE ensures continuous data integration and sharing a principle between all project stakeholders inside and outside your company. Thanks to interconnected software, software boundaries disappear, and data integrity is guaranteed throughout the collaborative BIMelec process. Communication within the project becomes "boundless" in the best sense of the word. Teamwork and true collaboration become a reality.
You determine your projects, you determine your strategy and create new workflows to increase efficiency and optimize your installations.
