BS EN 60617-3:1996 is a British Standard that specifies graphical symbols for diagrams used in electrotechnology and electronics. This standard was adopted from the international standard IEC 60617-3:1996.
The standard provides a set of graphical symbols that can be used to represent electrical and electronic devices and components, as well as their functions and connections. These symbols are commonly used in diagrams such as circuit diagrams, block diagrams, and wiring diagrams.
The symbols included in the standard are organized into categories based on their function or application, such as measurements, electromagnetic components, and digital circuits. Each symbol is accompanied by a brief description of its function and usage.
Some specific categories of symbols covered by the standard include:
Measurements, such as meters, oscilloscopes, and signal generators
Electromagnetic components, such as transformers, motors, and generators
Digital circuits, such as logic gates, flip-flops, and counters
Audio and video equipment, such as speakers, microphones, and cameras
Power supply components, such as batteries and voltage regulators
Compliance with this standard is often required in the design and documentation of electrical and electronic systems, particularly in industries such as telecommunications, aerospace, and automotive engineering. The standard helps ensure that diagrams are clear, accurate, and consistent, making it easier for engineers and technicians to understand and work with complex systems.
