Abstract: With the continuous improvement of China's technical capacity and economic comprehensive strength, more and more enterprises begin to widely apply intelligent technology in electrical engineering automation control. Especially in the management, intelligent technology plays a leading role. The introduction of intelligent technology into electrical engineering and automation can improve the management quality and reduce the workload of electrical engineering construction workers. Due to the slow development of China's power engineering and automation, and relatively short time experience, our engineering has obvious drawbacks in professional aspects. Based on this, this paper describes the application of intelligent technology in electrical engineering and automation, in order to further promote the intelligent development of electrical engineering.
