I've never used E-plan myself, but seen a lot of schemes made in E-plan with S7 components (PSU, CPU, SM modules) and appropriate wiring. I really doubt that designerswere drawing them manually.

It has many libraries for many vendors. While you installing AutoCAD electrical, it asking you which manufacturer library you have to install? One of these libraries is SIEMENS and I found the PLC modules and many more for SIEMENS products. Regards,
