IEC 60027 (formerly IEC 27) is a technical international standard for letter symbols published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), comprising the following parts: IEC 60027-1: General; IEC 60027-2: Telecommunications and electronics; IEC 60027-3: Logarithmic and related quantities, and their units
The graphic symbols used for electrical components in circuit diagrams are covered by national and international standards, in particular: IEC 60617 (also known as BS 3939). There is also IEC 61131-3 – for ladder-logic symbols. JIC JIC (Joint Industrial Council) symbols as approved and adopted by the NMTBA (National Machine Tool Builders ...
IEC 113 (Superseded by IEC 750, i.e. IEC 60750.) IEC 750-1983 (AS 3702 is equivalent, but provides extra information.) IEEE 315-1975 / ANSI Standard Y32.2. Annex F: "Cross reference list of Class Designation Letters" compares IEC 113-2:1971 to the IEEE/ANSI standard. * AS 1102 and IEC 60617 for "Graphical Symbols for Electrotechnology".
IEC Standards that are not jointly developed with ISO have numbers in the range 60000–79999 and their titles take a form such as IEC 60417: Graphical symbols for use on equipment. Following the Dresden Agreement with CENELEC the numbers of older IEC standards were converted in 1997 by adding 60000, for example IEC 27 became IEC 60027 ...
IEC standards cover a vast range of technologies within electrotechnology. The numbers of older IEC standards were converted in 1997 by adding 60000; for example IEC 27 became IEC 60027. IEC standards often have multiple sub-part documents; only the main title for the standard is listed here. IEC 60027 Letter symbols to be used in electrical ...
By 1914, the IEC had issued a first list of terms and definitions covering electrical machinery and apparatus, a list of international letter symbols for quantities and signs for names of units, a list of definitions in connection with hydraulic turbines, and a number of definitions and recommendations relating to rotating machines and ...
Reference should be made to codes and standards. For example, IEC 60027, and Letter Symbols in Electrical Technology. Here are tables of widely accepted symbols. They are meant to be a guideline: Using the same symbols for the same things in different articles will increase their consistency, making them easier to understand and to improve.
Originally meant also as part marking code, this shorthand notation is widely used in electrical engineering to denote the values of resistors and capacitors in circuit diagrams and in the production of electronic circuits (for example in bills of material and in silk screens).
