The present invention, Technical Solution Architect Power Distribution Tool (TSAPDT), permits users to configure networking devices in their enclosures. The user creates a list of enclosures to receive the devices. The user selects each enclosure and specifies the voltage and amperage of each electrical circuit providing power to the enclosure. The user then begins adding the networking devices, specifying the quantity of each device. The TSAPDT confirms that there is adequate space as well as electrical power and outlets. The TSAPDT indicates to the user if additional power circuits are required or if the physical space limitations of the enclosure are reached. When the user is satisfied that the solution is complete, the user may save the configuration to an electronic field and generate a report that also may be saved or electronically copied and pasted into another electronic document.
