Amtech Office Domestic is software product of year

Amtech Office Domestic software suite has been recognised as Electrical Software Product of the Year at the Electrical Industry Awards 2007.

The judges commented: "We felt Office Domestic would provide excellent functionality and offered both design and certification potential".

"The fact that the software can be carried on a number of hardware systems was also a great plus in our eyes".

Developed specifically for electrical contractors specialising in domestic work, AMTECH Office Domestic provides everything they need in one powerful yet affordable package, including electrical design, cable sizing and Test and Inspection certification.

"Rather than expecting domestic contractors to pay for features that they'll never use, we developed this suite to address their day to day requirements at a very competitive price," explained AMTECH Sales Director James Cooper.

"As well as helping them use the latest technologies to keep up with the growing legislative burden, we believe this software encourages safer designs, accurate calculations and effective reporting - all contributing to improved safety in the home," he added.

Using AMTECH Office Domestic, single phase installations consisting of up to 3 boards to BS 7671 can be designed quickly using a series of simple tabbed input screens.

Cables and protective devices can be selected from a large database contained in the program.

The Quick results view makes diagnosing problems in the design easy and changes to the design can be made at the click of a mouse.

A range of reports including: circuit charts, cable calculations, consumer unit schedules etc are included.

After the work has been completed the software will produce Test and Inspection certificates that meet the requirements of Part P.

These are suitable for use with all major accreditation bodies.

In addition to producing professional looking certificates, all the test information and customer information is held in a database for future reference.

A mobile version for use on a Pocket PC is included to enable contractors to produce certificates on site.
