Your installation,compliant,in one prompt.

Draw your home, place sockets, lights and water points — or ask the AI. Circuia works out the circuits and generates a consumer unit checked in real time against your country's wiring rules: BS 7671 in the UK, I.S. 10101 in Ireland and 15 more European countries.

02Method

From sketch to consumer unit, in three steps.

You don't need to be an electrician to get started. Circuia handles the regulatory side; you just describe your project.

  1. Draw your plan

    Sketch your walls freehand on the snapping grid, add doors and windows, name your rooms. Floor areas are calculated automatically.

    • Walls
    • Openings
    • Rooms
    • Areas

  2. Place your points — or ask the AI

    Place sockets, light fittings, switches and water points with the mouse. Or just type “equip the kitchen to standard”: the assistant suggests, you approve.

    • Sockets
    • Lighting
    • Water points
    • Prompt

  3. Compliant consumer unit generated

    Your country's rules engine (BS 7671 rings and radials, I.S. 10101, NEK 400…) groups the circuits, sizes breakers, RCDs and cable cross-sections, and flags every deviation.

    • Breakers
    • RCDs
    • Cross-sections
    • Report

03Features

All the technical trades, on a single sheet.

  • E-01

    Electrical

    Sockets, light fittings, switches, two-way switching, dedicated circuits: every point is assigned to a circuit, with the right cable cross-section.

  • P-02

    Plumbing

    Hot and cold water supplies, drains, sanitary fittings. Networks are drawn in blue, separate from the electrics.

  • T-03

    Consumer unit & breakers

    Automatic distribution under the RCDs, ratings and number of modules: your consumer unit, row by row.

  • N-04

    Real-time checks against your country's rules

    Floor area per ring or radial, RCD and bathroom rules, dedicated circuits: deviations show up as soon as you create them, with the regulation behind them.

  • IA-05

    AI assistant

    Type add 3 sockets in the kitchen: the AI edits the plan, the rules engine checks it. You stay in control.

  • X-06

    PDF export for your electrician

    Dimensioned plan, circuit list, consumer unit schedule and compliance report, ready to send to your electrician.

04AI assistant

Talk to your plan. It answers in circuit breakers.

The AI turns your request into concrete changes. The deterministic rules engine checks every line before it reaches your consumer unit.

Add 3 sockets in the kitchen, above the worktop.

Circuia

Done. I created a dedicated 2.5 mm² circuit protected by a 20A circuit breaker, placed under RCD ID2. The kitchen now has 6 sockets.

05Who it's for

One plan, three trades around the table.

Profile A

Homeowners renovating

You're redoing your house or flat and want to understand what the standard says before calling in a pro.

  • Visualise your future consumer unit before the work starts
  • Go to your electrician with a clear plan
  • Compare quotes on a common basis
Profile B

Electricians & tradespeople

Quote faster, document better. Circuia prepares the diagram; you keep the expertise and the sign-off.

  • Consumer unit pre-design in minutes
  • Exportable schedule and circuit list
  • A clean file for your client and the certification paperwork
Profile C

Interior architects

Integrate electrical and plumbing from the first sketch, without waiting for the engineering firm.

  • Point layout from the design stage
  • Clear plans to share with the other trades
  • Fewer back-and-forth trips to site
06Disclaimer

A design aid, not a certificate.

Circuia helps you design and understand your installation, but does not replace a qualified professional or the certification your country requires. Suggestions from the AI and the rules engine are for guidance only: outside France the country rules packs are in beta, may be incomplete or out of date, and may overlook constraints specific to your home.

Every installation must be carried out or checked by a qualified electrician and certified as your country requires, for example with an Electrical Installation Certificate under BS 7671 in the UK. Never work on live circuits.

07Countries & standards

One standard per country, checked in the same editor.

Pick the country of the job when you create a project: Circuia applies that country's rules (circuits, protection, bathrooms, consumer unit). Outside France the rules packs are in beta.

Countries supported by the editor and the standard applied

Beta: rules built from public sources, not yet reviewed by an electrician of each country. Circuia issues no certificate.
