Double left-click on the relay coil of your choice and the menu will disappear, leaving the coil symbol attached to the mouse pointer.ĭrag the symbol towards the bottom center of the drawing sheet and double-left-click to transfer the symbol from the mouse pointer to the drawing. Most of these image menus have a descriptive box at the side of the menu.

From the drop-down menu, left-click on ‘Relays’.

Now, to draw the circuit, lets try a simple Electric Motor Stop/Start circuit. Additionally check the OSNAP settings in AutoCAD are toggled on … ‍ In addition check if Snap settings are set correctly to either a 1/4″ or 1/2″ as this will help align the electrical schematic as well. This can be toggled “On” or “Off” by hitting the “F8” key. Since the majority of schematic diagrams have connecting lines that run vertically or horizontally, it helps to put “Ortho mode” on. The displayed sheet is now displayed and is pre-set with the correct parameters. ‍ The second option is to go to the bottom of the dropdown menu and select the required drawing sheet size and hit ‘Enter’. This will set the correct Snap value and other parameters. The first one is to import or develop your own drawing sheet, in which case, right click on the appropriate Menubar heading and from the dropdown menu, right click on “Parameters”. Having decided which symbol library to use, there are now two options. On the other hand if (Met) symbols are used on Imperial sized sheets, then they will appear oversized.

Selecting the wrong library will result in “mini sized” electrical symbols if (Imp) symbols are used on Metric sized sheets. ‍ If you are using Standard sized drawing sheets, use the (Imp) version and if using Metric sized drawing sheets, use the (Met) version. In the video above we are using the ASNI Y32.2 Symbol Library. In the menu this is shown as ” Y32.2 (Imp)” and the Metric version as ” Y32.2 (Met)”. The electrical symbols come in two versions – Imperial and Standard version. On the Menubar, you will find headings for the libraries you have installed. Today we’re walking you though how to create a simple circuit layout inside AutoCAD using a Electrical Symbol Library which supports both ANSI and IEC standards.Īfter installing the Electrical Symbol Library – start AutoCAD.
