Add low volatage calculation and layout capabilities for Fire Alarm, Security, Nurse Call, etc.
The low voltage industry has been fairly ignored in the software industry. Fire Alarm systems in particular are pretty involved in the calculation requirements to meet code. Voltage drops, circuit loading (usually in amps, not volts), backup battery calculations, etc. are all necessary aspects of design. Currently there is no software program on the market that addresses these issues. AMEP has the potential to be tweaked to address this market and in doing so would open up a whole nother industry to its market.
