Electrical Diagram Software

This post is in the hope that some of the experts here might be able to recommend an easy to use, layperson, software that would let me sketch out an electrical diagram of changes & upgrades I've made to my Airstream and old collector vehicles I've restored. Don't want to learn a complicated 3D CAD system but need something more than a flowchart program and better than using Paint as I do now.

Thank You in advance.

Any diagramming software will require a learning curve, however some are easier to learn than others. I used Microsoft Visio, one of the easier to learn, to create the below schematic. There are many online courses available.

Open Source Office Substitute

I had forgotten LibreOffice has a draw program also.

https://www.libreoffice.org/discover/draw/

This is software you need to install, but it can be used offline and has builds for Windows, iOS and Linux. (also free)
