Electrical bids depend on panel schedules, one-line diagrams, riser drawings, lighting plans, and separate low-voltage sheets. Sky Estimates quantifies Division 26 power distribution, branch wiring, device counts, lighting fixtures, fire alarm, and low-voltage systems from the drawing set you submit.
Feeders trace from service entrance through distribution panels. Branch circuits count from floor plans. Fixture types pull from lighting schedules. Conduit runs measure in LF by size and system. Wire quantities follow circuit paths with spares and home runs where specifications require them.
Switchboards, transformers, and disconnects count from schedules and get flagged for distributor gear quotes when lead times affect buy-out. Power scope stays separate from communications so vendor packages match how electrical subs quote.

Electrical takeoffs start with panel schedules and one-lines, not generic room templates. Feeders trace from service through distribution panels. Branch circuits count from floor plans. Fixture types come from lighting schedules with catalog references where shown.
Conduit runs measure in LF by size and system. FastPIPE drives conduit measurement where applicable. Wire quantities follow circuit paths with allowance for home runs and spares where spec sections require them.
Switchboards, transformers, and disconnects count from schedules and get flagged for distributor gear quotes when lead times affect buy-out. Low-voltage scope in Division 27 and 28, when included, tracks on separate takeoff sheets from Division 26 power.

Feeder, branch, device, and gear counts come from panel schedules, one-lines, riser diagrams, and Division 26 spec sections, not symbol-per-room shortcuts.
Conduit runs measure in FastPIPE. Device counts and markup use Bluebeam and PlanSwift. Excel exports match your estimating template or distributor RFQ format.
Division 26 power scope is isolated from fire alarm, data, and AV on separate takeoff sheets and markup layers so subs and distributors quote clean scope boundaries.
Takeoff sheets follow your division structure with color-coded markups when requested. Feeders, branch circuits, devices, fixtures, and low-voltage layers stay separated so reviewers audit scope before pricing locks.
Lead estimators cross-check panel schedules against one-lines, verify device counts against floor plans, and flag missing gear, conflicting spec sections, and long-lead equipment before deliverables ship.
You receive Excel takeoff summaries, marked PDFs, gear quote lists, and template exports on the agreed schedule. Addenda and bulletins trigger revision support when Division 26 scope changes.
Share PDF, TIFF, DWG, JPEG, PNG, or other common formats through our upload form or email. Include panel schedules, one-lines, lighting schedules, and low-voltage sheets with your bid date.
We review sheet count, Division 26 boundaries, and low-voltage inclusions, then return a fixed quote with turnaround and deliverable format before production starts.

Get a Free QuoteFire alarm, data, AV, access control, and other low-voltage systems count on separate takeoff sheets and markup layers from Division 26 power. Deliverables label each system so subs and distributors quote the correct scope without cross-contamination.
Yes. Switchboards, panelboards, transformers, disconnects, and other scheduled gear count from panel schedules and one-lines. Long-lead items get flagged for distributor quotes when you need pricing support beyond quantity takeoff.
Conduit runs measure in FastPIPE where applicable. Device counts, areas, and general markup use Bluebeam and PlanSwift. Exports land in Excel formatted for your estimating template or distributor RFQ.
