electrical symbols?

any one know a decent site that has electrical symbols to on it that conform to BS5070 and BS3939?

 

nope sorry

 

thanks

 

I think Autocad 2002 has some as standard apart from that there's some site's which will charge you about $30 for a set of symbols.
Just get a reference book and copy them, stick a bunch of attrib thingies on them to make your life easier and you're laughing.

 

how do you mean nordoff? im needing ones online tonight so i can copy them down to draw out some things

thanks very much

 

thanks nord horse

 

Or on a sidenote suppliers can give you a huge amount of symbols and tools.
Forget the real name now but +GF+ do a lot steelwork parts, unions, T piece's, pipework, regulators, governors, etc
They include programs in their parts catalogue (if you ask) that works out how much piping you've used and draws up an order form for you within the drawing.
It's all autolisp stuff so works fine with autocad.
Unfortunately the last time I had a copy the symbol blocks were all DXF files which was rather annoying for inserting into a drawing.

 

No worries dave.

 

well looking at that site you just told me about, theres no way im paying $59 for it, i only need to know what the symbols for a ballast resistor and 4 way rotary selector switch are.

 

Sorry mate, that was just a quick google search.
Have you tried asking some of the news groups yet?

 

no im not really up to scratch on that kinda thing, i wouldnt know where to start

 

open up outlook express
go to tools and select newsgroups
It'll give you a big list running into the 1000's
type in autocad in the little box and it'll tell you the names of all the newsgroups that are autocad related.
Then just choose subscribe to whichever you want and it'll be in your folders window in outlook.
edit: alt.cad.autocad looks okay.
