Introduction
Electrical layout can be placed on the floor plan with all the other
symbols, information, and dimensions. This is a common practice on simple
floor plans where the addition of the electrical symbols does not
overcomplicate the drawing. Another option is to draw electrical plans on a
separate sheet that displays the floor plan walls and key symbols, such as
doors, windows, stairs, furniture, cabinets, and room labels.
Through this module, you will learn how to draw diagrams of electrical
and electronic circuits, proper symbols, layout, and other details using CAD.
Computer-aided design provides an excellent tool for creating electrical plans
after the floor plans are drawn. Not needed floor plan layers are turned off or
frozen with electrical layers turned on to create the electrical plan. It is easy to
create a separate drawing from the key elements of the base drawing in this
manner.
Know
Most of the common electrical symbols are provided with the software
of many of the CAD programs. When these symbols are available, you may
select the desired symbol from a menu, dialog box, palette, or library and
insert the symbol into position on the drawing. In the event that a desired
electrical symbol is not available, you are often given tools to create custom
electrical symbol libraries.
Directions: By analyzing the sample floor plan below formulate your own
Electrical Layout Guidelines based on how the symbols and fixtures are
properly placed on the given sample. Be sure to discuss your presentation in
class.
Directions: Using the same floor plan on Appendix B, page 113 - 114 draft
an electrical plan as shown in the given example below. You may use the
Design Center to insert Electrical Symbols and/or fixtures you have created
previously as AutoCAD blocks.

Directions: By analyzing the sample floor plan from the preceding page,
formulate your own Auxiliary Systems Guidelines based on how the symbols
and fixtures are properly placed on the given sample. Be sure to discuss your
presentation in class.
