Standard electrical circuit symbols
Standard electrical circuit symbols. Diagram of standard symbols used to represent electrical equipment in electrical circuit diagrams. The symbols are arranged in six rows of sets of three. From top, these rows show symbols for: conductors, power supplies, resistors, capacitors, diodes and transistors. These symbols have varied over time and from country to country, and so various national and international standards have been devised to ensure consistent use of standard symbols that can be recognised worldwide. These symbols conform to British Standard 3939 (BS 3939)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the standard electrical circuit symbols used to represent various electrical equipment in circuit diagrams. Arranged in six rows of sets of three, these symbols cover a wide range of components essential for understanding and designing electrical circuits. From top to bottom, the rows depict symbols for conductors, power supplies, resistors, capacitors, diodes, and transistors. Over time and across different countries, these symbols have evolved and varied. To ensure consistent usage worldwide, national and international standards like British Standard 3939 (BS 3939) have been developed. The significance of these standardized symbols lies in their ability to convey complex information about electric devices with ease. They serve as a universal language for engineers and technicians working on electronic projects or troubleshooting existing systems. In this image captured by Science Photo Library (not affiliated with any company), we witness the culmination of years of technological advancements condensed into eighteen distinct symbols. From simple conductors to intricate transistors, each symbol represents an integral part of modern-day electronics. Whether you are an aspiring engineer or simply fascinated by technology's inner workings, this print is sure to ignite your curiosity about the world behind our everyday gadgets.
