Units & Symbols for Electrical & Electronic Engineers
Year: 2016 Language: english Author: The IET Genre: Reference book Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 37 Description: In the expression I = 16 mA, I is the quantity symbol for the physical phenomenon of electric current, and 16 is its numerical value in terms of the decimal submultiple (10–3) of a unit (ampere) of current; mA is the unit symbol for milliampere. Other symbols (such as j, exp, Cu) are used to indicate mathematical operations, chemical elements etc. Frequently occurring technical phrases are commonly rendered as abbreviations (such as e.m.f., p.d.). In circuit diagrams, graphical symbols identify network components and devices. International letter symbolism is based on the Roman and Greek alphabets. There are fewer than 90 distinctive capital and small letters to represent some thousands of scientific and technical quantities, and extensive duplication is unavoidable. Priority is given here to electrical, electronic and manufacturing engineering, and quantities in associated fields are, where necessary, assigned alternative or second-choice symbols. The units and symbols listed throughout this booklet conform to the recommendations of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and the British Standards Institution (BSI). Additionally, because of their common usage, in the Logic Symbols under Section 12 some distinctive-shape binary logic symbols have been used.

Pages count: 37
Description: In the expression I = 16 mA, I is the quantity symbol for the physical phenomenon of electric current, and 16 is its numerical
value in terms of the decimal submultiple (10–3) of a unit (ampere) of current; mA is the unit symbol for milliampere. Other
symbols (such as j, exp, Cu) are used to indicate mathematical operations, chemical elements etc. Frequently occurring technical
phrases are commonly rendered as abbreviations (such as e.m.f., p.d.). In circuit diagrams, graphical symbols identify network
components and devices.
International letter symbolism is based on the Roman and Greek alphabets. There are fewer than 90 distinctive capital and small
letters to represent some thousands of scientific and technical quantities, and extensive duplication is unavoidable. Priority is
given here to electrical, electronic and manufacturing engineering, and quantities in associated fields are, where necessary,
assigned alternative or second-choice symbols.
The units and symbols listed throughout this booklet conform to the recommendations of the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) and the British Standards Institution (BSI). Additionally, because of their common usage, in the Logic Symbols
under Section 12 some distinctive-shape binary logic symbols have been used.
