1187 IEC 60617 electrical symbols for AutoCAD

ElectroBlocs provides an exhaustive library of 1187 electrical symbols compliant with the IEC 60617 standard. Each symbol is an AutoCAD dynamic block with configurable properties, prefilled attributes and an automatic trade layer.

IEC 60617 — the international standard

The IEC 60617 standard defines the graphical symbols used in electrical diagrams. It is internationally recognized and replaces the former IEC 617. In Europe, it is the reference for electrical engineering offices, installers and manufacturers.

The IEC 60617 standard is divided into several parts covering: passive elements, semiconductor components, electromechanical actuators, measuring instruments, signalling, telecommunications, power distribution, etc.

Power supply

AC/DC sources, batteries, inverters, rectifiers, converters, generators, solar panels.

Connectors and terminals

Plugs, sockets, multi-point connectors, screw terminal blocks, spring terminal blocks, connector strips, industrial connectors.

Lighting

Fluorescent, LED, incandescent and halogen luminaires, emergency lighting, presence detectors, switches.

Dynamic properties

Each ElectroBlocs symbol is an AutoCAD dynamic block, which means its parameters (component size, orientation, visual variant) can be modified without having to re-insert a new block. For example, a circuit breaker can be configured 1P, 2P, 3P or 4P via its dynamic property, and a contact can switch NO/NC with a single click.

Insertion via EBFIND

Insertion is done via the palette EBFIND : type the name or description of the symbol you are looking for, click the thumbnail, and the symbol follows your cursor until the confirming click. The trade layer is chosen automatically.
