IGE+XAO

Electrical design and engineering software from France

IGE+XAO is a French publisher of software for electrical engineering, covering everything from early system design to electrical product lifecycle management. Its packages run from simple electrical schematics through to full product lifecycle management, so one group can serve a small firm and a large corporation alike. The range is sorted into six domains, and the company says it offers a complete portfolio for each business size.

System design and electrical design

System design tools shape the overall form of an installation, down to principle diagrams and cable plans. The SEE Electrical family covers electrical design and engineering, with editions for expert users, product lifecycle work and building design. A cabling module belongs to the same family.

Data and project management

For data and project work, the range includes a web catalogue of components, a project manager, a document generator called Gen E-doc and a tool named Compodata. These help engineering teams keep component data and project documents in one place, so the same information can be reused across a project.

Simulation and diagnostics

Simulation and diagnostic software includes SIMAC and AIDMAP II, which are used to test and check the behaviour of electrical systems before they are built or put into service.

Electrical manufacturing

For manufacturers of electrical equipment the company offers SEE Electrical 3D Panel+ for panel design, SEE Electrical 3D Shop floor for workshop planning, and SEE Electrical Harness Manufacturing for cable harnesses. These tools link design data to the production floor.

Power generation and renewable energy

Power generation and energy is a sector the company names directly, with solutions for renewable energy generation. It has issued updates for its photovoltaic module, including a January 2025 release, and offers a maintenance service called SEE One Team to keep installed software current.

Interfaces and subsidiary products

To work with a customer's existing information systems, IGE+XAO provides a full range of interfaces. The group also sells the software of its subsidiary Prosyst, which extends the portfolio beyond its own packages.

Engineering teams in energy and manufacturing

Customers in power generation, energy and manufacturing use the range, from small firms to large corporations. The group segments its offer by industry, so a customer buys the domains that match its own work.
