Foreword
(This Foreword is not a part of American National Standard Graphic Symbols for
Electrical and Electronics Diagrams, Y32.2-1970.)
This A m e r i c a n N a t i o n a l Standard is a revision a n d expansion of U S A Standard G r a p h i c S y m b o l s for

Electrical a n d Electronics D i a g r a m s , Y 3 2 . 2 - 1 9 6 7 .
A large n u m b e r of n e w symbols has b e e n a d d e d . W h i l e the major additions are in the areas of
antennas, transmission path, thermal relays, V H F / U H F / S H F circuit devices, and semiconductor de
vices, all sections h a v e s o m e n e w or revised items. N e w sections h a v e b e e n a d d e d to cover graphic
symbols for special-purpose m a i n t e n a n c e diagrams, analog c o m p u t e r s y m b o l s ( f o r m e r l y in I E E E Stan
dard 1 6 6 ) , also e q u i p m e n t a n d station symbols for system diagrams, m a p s a n d charts. F o r convenience
of users, the class letters u s e d to form reference designations ( f o r m e r l y in A N S I Y 3 2 . 1 6 ) h a v e n o w
b e e n i n c l u d e d in a n e w section of Y 3 2 . 2 . In this revision the symbols are slightly larger than in Y 3 2 . 2 -
1 9 6 7 edition, resulting in i m p r o v e d readability. A revised edition of the large s y m b o l chart included
with the Y 3 2 . 2 - 1 9 6 7 edition will b e available separately to c o m p l e m e n t the n e w edition.
A l l of the s y m b o l s are d e s i g n e d so that their connection points fall o n a m o d u l a r grid. This should
help those w h o use a grid basis for the preparation of diagrams. B y proper enlargement of the s y m b o l
the usual coordinate-grid sizes can b e m a t c h e d .
A substantial effort has been m a d e to h a v e this A m e r i c a n N a t i o n a l Standard m o r e c o m p a t i b l e with
a p p r o v e d International Electrotechnical C o m m i s s i o n ( I E C ) R e c o m m e n d a t i o n s ( I E C Publication 117,
in various p a r t s ) . Electrical diagrams are a factor in international trade; the use of one c o m m o n s y m b o l
l a n g u a g e ensures a clear presentation a n d economical diagram preparation for a variety of users.
M e m b e r s of the preparing c o m m i t t e e h a v e b e e n active in transmitting U S A viewpoints to the cognizant
I E C Technical Committee.
Alternative s y m b o l s are s h o w n o n l y in those cases w h e r e agreement o n a c o m m o n s y m b o l could not b e
attained at this time. It is h o p e d that the n u m b e r of alternative s y m b o l s will b e r e d u c e d in future
editions.
T h e s y m b o l s in this standard represent the b e s t consensus that can b e attained at this time. Stand
ardization, h o w e v e r , m u s t b e d y n a m i c , not static, and any solution of a p r o b l e m should b e tested
through use a n d revised if necessary. It is anticipated that the contents of this standard will b e modified
as future needs dictate; such modifications will b e m a d e available through the issuance of a p p r o v e d
supplements. Suggestions for i m p r o v e m e n t are w e l c o m e d . T h e y should b e addressed to:
