This document provides an overview of the symbol libraries, databases, and file locations used in AutoCAD Electrical. Key points include:
- Symbol libraries comply with standards like IEEE and IEC, and are located in the Libs folder. Icon menus insert schematic and panel components.
- Databases include catalog, footprint, and schematic lookups to map symbols and parts. Default databases are in the support folders.
- Other files define circuits, standards, title blocks, descriptions, and more. PLC modules are in the PLC folder.
