Excellent ERP · Industry

ERP for Cable, Switchgear & Lighting Manufacturing

Run electrical cables and wires, modular switches and sockets, and LED lights and fittings on one ERP: length-based inventory, conductor-metal costing, large variant catalogues, BIS/ISI quality gates, and batch traceability — all in a single manufacturing system.

Built for electrical goods

Excellent ERP, mapped to cable, switchgear & lighting

The same manufacturing engine — BOM, planning, quality, costing — applied to the length-based, metal-cost and safety-compliance realities of cables, modular switches and LED fittings.

Coil/length-based inventory

Electrical cables and wires are stocked and sold by metre, coil and drum — Excellent ERP tracks length-based inventory with full unit conversions. Stock balances stay accurate from goods receipt through production issue to dispatch.

Copper & aluminium costing

Conductor metal is the main cost driver in cables and wires, and its price moves daily. Capture material cost per coil and per SKU so every cost sheet and margin report reflects the real metal price at the time of production.

Large SKU & variant catalogue

Gauges, core counts and colours for cable; module ranges and finishes for switches; wattage and colour temperature for LED lights — every combination is its own item with its own stock, cost and price.

BOM & sub-assembly

Model complete bills of material for switch/socket assemblies, LED fittings (driver, housing, LED board) and cable constructions (cores, insulation, sheathing). Multi-level BOMs drive accurate MRP and production planning.

Production planning & MRP

Plan drawing, extrusion and assembly from the order book and forecast. Work orders, material issue and shop-floor tracking keep production moving and material balanced against demand.

Quality & safety testing (BIS/ISI)

Run electrical-safety checks with pass/fail results and a release gate for cables, modular switches and LED fittings, supporting the BIS/ISI compliance required before goods leave the floor.

Batch & specification control

Track gauge, rating and specification by batch so every coil and every lot is traceable to its test results, raw-material inputs and production run for compliance and recall.

Scrap & recovery

Capture extrusion and drawing scrap and regrind at the point of production so waste is accounted for in the per-SKU cost. Accurate scrap recording is essential when the lost material is copper or aluminium.

Why it matters

Metal-cost, SKU-heavy, safety-bound

Cable, switchgear and lighting manufacturing lives on volatile input costs, enormous variant counts and mandatory safety certification — Excellent ERP keeps all three in one system.

Margin protected from metal swings

Copper and aluminium move constantly. Per-SKU material costing tied to the actual purchase price keeps your selling rates and margin reports honest regardless of where the commodity market sits.

A huge catalogue under control

Thousands of gauge, rating and colour SKUs across cables, switches and LED fittings — each planned, stocked and costed at the exact variant so nothing is lumped, lost or mispriced.

Ships only when it's safe

BIS/ISI testing and a release gate mean only batches that have passed electrical-safety checks can be dispatched, so compliance is built into the workflow rather than checked at the end.

FAQ

Cable, switchgear & lighting FAQs

Yes. Electrical cables and wires are stocked, issued and sold by metre, coil or drum — not by piece. Excellent ERP handles length-based inventory with unit conversions across all three units, so your stock records and sales documents reflect exactly how the product moves. Coil balances stay accurate at every stage from goods receipt through production issue to dispatch.
