INTRODUCING MSG PLAN

Design smarter homes.
Plan the electrics. Price the installation.

MSG Plan brings home automation design and everyday electrical planning into one workspace. From rewires and extensions to connected homes, turn device layouts into room-by-room estimates and clear customer quotations.

PLAN NEW INSTALLATIONS

MSG Plan

  • Place, resize and rotate device symbols, with grid alignment for tidy layouts.
  • Break down device quantities, materials and labour room by room.

FROM A SINGLE ROOM TO A CONNECTED HOME

One workspace.
Two ways to plan.

HOME AUTOMATION DESIGN

Make the whole home work on paper.

Map keypads, controllers, sensors, lighting and shading across every room. Combine manufacturer libraries in a clear installation layout and build the estimate around your chosen equipment.

  • Separate libraries for Loxone, Control4, Lutron and Rako
  • Device notes, mounting details and variation choices
  • Customer plans with symbol keys and supplier materials lists
EVERYDAY ELECTRICAL PLANNING

Give every socket and switch a place.

Plan rewires, extensions, new builds and room upgrades. Lay out sockets, switches, lights, consumer units, data and safety devices without needing an automation system.

  • Upload a floor plan or create one with Pro or Business
  • Room areas, scale, alignment and reusable parts prices
  • Room-by-room estimates and branded PDF quotations

YOUR CHOICE OF SYSTEM

Plan with the brands
your customers choose.

Bring selected manufacturer devices into the same drawing as sockets, lighting, data and security. Build a coordinated installation plan, price the work and explain it clearly to your customer.

Loxone

Automation controllers, lighting, climate, energy and audio.

Lutron

Architectural controls, keypads, climate and motorised shading.

Rako

Wired and wireless lighting controls, keypads and blind modules.

NEW IN MSG PLAN

From your own floor plan to a supplier-ready parts list.

Design the layout, record installation details and prepare the documents your customers and suppliers need.

Create your own floor plans

Included with active Pro and Business packages. Build rectangular rooms and walls, add doors and windows, and enter dimensions in metres. Save once: the drawing, rooms and scale appear automatically in Plan.

MSG Plan Designer with a fictional eight-room layout and editable dimensions

Make every room and device clear

Edit room boundaries, show or hide room labels and calculate areas in m² from your drawing scale. Add notes to individual devices, choose variations and use grid alignment.

Send suppliers a bill of materials

Download PDF or CSV lists from Quote with parts, selected variations, product codes, supplier part numbers and combined quantities. Your prices, margins and labour stay out of the supplier list.

Get started with guidance

A seven-step setup guide walks you through company details, parts, drawings, rooms, devices, estimates and quotations. Close it whenever you like and reopen it from your project.

Starter includes uploaded floor plans and the Plan → Estimate → Quote workflow. The built-in Floor Plan Designer requires an active Pro or Business subscription.

Plan devices, cables and supplier costs together

Reusable parts and supplier prices

Keep devices, cables, variations, suppliers and labour settings together in Parts & Pricing. Browse collapsible categories, resize columns and reorder your catalogue. Shared products stay consistent while each company keeps its own supplier references and negotiated prices.

Cable quantities and installation costs

Add cable type, conductor size and cores, then enter lengths in metres. Include wastage, drum quantities and labour allowances in the estimate. Compare supplier pack prices on a per-metre basis and include cables in the supplier bill of materials.

Symbols for electrical and smart-home plans

Choose from 765 searchable symbol options, including channel, zone and port variants. Separate Loxone, Control4, Lutron and Rako groups keep manufacturer products easy to find alongside standard electrical devices. Symbols appear on plans and exported device keys.

From buying price to customer quotation

Set preferred suppliers, import supplier prices for review and use company labour rates and margins. Review draft estimates before issuing: saved quotations retain their prices. Export a supplier bill of materials as PDF or CSV without exposing internal margins or labour.

Cable lengths, quantities and prices are advisory estimates and are not guaranteed by MSG Plan. Check measurements, cable specifications, installation requirements and current supplier prices before ordering or installation. Cable routes and circuit design are not calculated automatically.
