Electrical Symbols — Switches and Relays

Electrical Symbols — Switches and Relays
In electrical engineering, a switch is an electrical component that can break an electrical circuit, interrupting the current or diverting it from one conductor to another. The mechanism of a switch may be operated directly by a human operator to control a circuit (for example, a light switch or a keyboard button), may be operated by a moving object such as a door-operated switch, or may be operated by some sensing element for pressure, temperature or flow. A relay is a switch that is operated by electricity. Switches are made to handle a wide range of voltages and currents; very large switches may be used to isolate high-voltage circuits in electrical substations. 26 libraries of the Electrical Engineering Solution of ConceptDraw PRO make your electrical diagramming simple, efficient, and effective. You can simply and quickly drop the ready-to-use objects from libraries into your document to create the electrical diagram.
The vector stencils library "Switches and relays" contains 58 symbols of electrical contacts, switches, relays, circuit breakers, selectors, connectors, disconnect devices, switching circuits, current regulators, and thermostats for electrical devices.
Use these shapes for drawing electrical diagrams in the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Electrical Engineering solution from the Engineering area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology

Common network diargam
How should diagramming software work? Is it possible to develop a diagram as quickly as the ideas come to you? The innovative ConceptDraw Smart Connectors Technology - This is more than enough versatility to draw any type of diagram with any degree of complexity. Connection points are necessary for diagramming network, flowchart and organizational charts. In ConceptDraw you connect shapes by attaching, or snapping and gluing, connectors to shape connection points.

Hotel Plan. Hotel Plan Examples

Hotel Plan
The hotels vary hard enough by the rating, service level, cost, size, location, style, and many other parameters. Before beginning the construction of new hotel, inn or a hotel complex, you first need to create a detailed overall hotel plan, the location plans of rooms, lobby, restaurant and other common premises and service rooms. The projects of mini-hotels must use the space particularly rational, at the same time the large hotels can afford spacious halls, banquet halls and even terraces. ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software enhanced with Basic Floor Plans and Floor Plans solutions from the Building Plans area of ConceptDraw Solution Park offer the set of predesigned vector stencils libraries with large selection of symbols of interior design elements, furniture and equipment for easy drawing the Hotel plans, Hotel floor plans, Hotel design plans, Space layouts, Layouts of furniture and equipment, etc. The offered templates and Floor plan samples will be also useful for you.
