PREFACE
This Standard was prepared by the Joint Standards Australia/Standards New Zealand Committee
TE/13, Symbols, Units and Quantities for Electrotechnology. It is issued as a Joint Standard to
supersede AS 1102.103 — 1989. It is based on but not equivalent to, and reproduced from,
IEC 617-3, Graphical symbols for diagrams , Part 3: Conductors and connecting devices.
The objective of this Standard is to provide users of electrotechnical documents with graphical
symbols for conductors and connecting devices for the purposes of uniformity and clarity in
presenting electrotechnical diagrams.
The Part numbers in this series of Standards correspond to equivalent Parts in the IEC 617 series
but with ‘100’ added to the IEC 617 Part number. For example, for the Standard IEC 617-2 refer to
AS/NZS 1102.102. The symbol numbers within this Standard are the same as the IEC 617 numbers.
In AS/NZS 1102.101, Graphical symbols for electrotechnical documentation , Part 101: General
information and general index, the first part of the symbol number refers to the Part number, e.g. in
the index, for symbol 102-01-01, refer to Part 102, symbol 02-01-01.
In this Standard, Australian and New Zealand variations have been listed in Appendix ZA and
accordingly, the source text should be amended, supplemented or replaced as required. The changes
to the source text are indicated with a marginal bar against each clause, table, figure or part thereof
affected. Appendix ZA provides symbols for use in Australia and New Zealand which are additional
to, or alternative to, the IEC 617 symbols. The symbols are identified with an ‘A’ in the third part
of the symbol number.
The term ‘normative’ has been used in this Standard to define the application of the appendix to
which it applies. A ‘normative’ appendix is an integral part of a Standard.
As this Standard is reproduced from an international Standard, the following applies:
(a) Its number appears on the cover and title page while the international Standard number
appears only on the cover.
(b) In the source text, ‘this International Standard’ should read ‘this Australian/New Zealand
Standard’.
(c) A full point substitutes for a comma when referring to a decimal marker.
References to international Standards should be replaced by equivalent Australian or Australian/
New Zealand Standards as follows:

INTRODUCTION
Symbols have been designed in accordance with requirements given in the future
ISO 11714-1. The module size M = 2,5 mm has been used. For better readability smaller
symbols in this standard have been enlarged to double size and are marked “200 %” in the
symbol column. To save space larger symbols have been reduced to half size and are
marked “50 %” in the symbol column. In accordance with the future ISO 11714-1, clause 7,
symbol dimensions (for instance height) may be modified in order to make space for
greater number of terminals or for other layout requirements. In all cases, whether the size
is enlarged or reduced, or dimensions modified, the thickness of the original line should be
maintained without scaling.
The symbols in this standard are laid out in such a way that the distance between
connecting lines is a multiple of a certain module. The module 2M has been chosen to
provide enough space for a required terminal designation. The symbols have been drawn
to a size convenient for comprehension, using the same grid consistently in the
representation of all symbols.
All symbols are designed within a grid in a computer-aided draughting system. The grid
which was used has been reproduced in the background of the symbols.
The older symbols which were included in appendix A of the first edition of IEC 617-3 for a
transitional period, are no longer part of this second edition, as they will definitely be
withdrawn from use.
The indexes in Annex B and C include an alphabetic list of symbol names and their
corresponding number. The symbol names are based on the description of the symbols of
this part. A general index including an alphabetic list of symbols of all parts is given in
IEC 617-1.
