Basic Symbols

 

Symbol	Description	Image
Resistor (R)	Represents a resistor used to limit current flow.
Capacitor (C)	Denotes a capacitor used to store electrical energy.
Inductor (L)	Represents an inductor, which stores energy in a magnetic field.
Battery (DC Voltage Source)	Symbolizes a direct current (DC) voltage source, typically a battery.
Ground	Indicates an electrical connection to the earth or ground.
Switch	SPST: Denotes a single-pole, single-throw switch that can open or close a circuit. SPDT: Denotes a single-pole, double-throw switch that can open or close a circuit.
Fuse	Represents a fuse, a safety device that interrupts excessive current flow.
Relay	Symbolizes an electromagnetic relay used for switching high currents.
Diode	Represents a diode, allowing current to flow in one direction.
Transistor (NPN)	Denotes an NPN transistor used for amplification and switching.
Transistor (PNP)	Represents a PNP transistor, another type of bipolar transistor.
Conductor	Symbolizes an electrical conductor, typically a wire.
Connection Point	Indicates a junction or connection point in a circuit.
Resistor in Series	Denotes resistors connected in series.
Resistor in Parallel	Represents resistors connected in parallel.
Transformer	Symbolizes a transformer, used for voltage transformation.
Motor	Represents an electric motor, commonly found in various industrial applications to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.
