Version 6.5 of the Electrical IEC 617 library includes 615 symbols which is the majority of symbols contained in the following parts:
Part 2 (Symbol Elements)
Part 3 (Conductors and connecting devices)
Part 4 (Passive components{resistors, capacitors, inductors etc}).
Part 5 (Semiconductors).
Part 6 (Production and conversion of electrical energy).
Part 7 (Switchgear, control gear and protective devices).
Part 8 (Measuring instruments, lamps and signaling devices).
Since the IEC 617 Standard is metric, all the symbols have been drawn to fit on ISO sized drawings. If required, the symbols can be inserted into ANSI sized drawings and then scaled down. Brief descriptions have been assigned to the symbols in the sidebar menu, wherever possible.
The symbols are accurately drawn on Layer 0 with a snap value of 2.0 and a grid setting of 8.0, and should be used on Metric sized drawing sheets.
Alternate partial menus are provided for use with more recent releases of AutoCAD, starting with AutoCAD R13.c4 and AutoCAD LT95. These menus are preferred, since they do not interfere with any prior menu customization and toolbar settings. They can also be used with other Autodesk products, such as Mechanical Desktop.
