    Electrical circuits can be represented using either pictures or symbols. Symbols are easier to understand, take up less space, and are quicker to draw than pictures. Components in a circuit diagram are shown as standardized symbols, and wires are drawn as straight lines to simplify the diagram. Circuit diagrams allow circuits to be represented using symbols instead of detailed pictures.
