Electronic Circuit Symbols
In electronic circuits, there are many electronic symbols that are used to represent or
identify a basic electronic or electrical device. They are mostly used to draw a circuit
diagram and are standardized internationally by the IEEE standard (IEEE Std 315) and
the British Standard (BS 3939). NO changes can be brought by the user
on any electronic symbol, but the user is free to bring any changes in the architectural
drawings like power source and lighting.
