    In This Topic
    The higher electrotechnical services (HEServices) provide access to all the higher functionality of EPLAN, which is not directly connected to the data model. There are classes for backing up projects and master data, for creating reports, or for printing. A lot of modules of EPLAN are represented in this namespace, like the labeling module and the parts management.
