V. Observation and Conclusion:

There’s a lot of electrical symbols that we need to know for

constructing a circuit diagram and electrical system designs. All of
the electrical symbols have similarities like the symbols that belongs
in one category, there are few of differences to them. It’s not easy to
be familiarized them. And I also noticed that there’s not only one
symbol in every components, some of their symbol are different
from the other I searched from the internet.
The only thing I know to familiarize the symbols is to spot the
differences of each other especially when they are belong in one
category, and understand why the symbols construct like that. By
being familiarized to the following symbols it will help me to easily
construct and understand some circuits diagram and electrical
system designs.
