      Sorry Tim.

      I didn't download the file. I just looked at the thumbnail.

        Tim, since I steered you wrong with that link, I'll see if I can make it right. I'm waiting for a return e-mail from my brother. He might come up with something as a fix.

          No guilt on your part Dave. It all looked fine in the snapshot.

          I think it might actually be better drawn as LO graphics anyway since that includes rather better circles and line control.

            Thank you.

            Yes, you're probably correct about the appearance being better in LO.

              I made one, also, and my only suggestion is to look at the ones we have for architecture, and try to size in the same manner. Make paper 5" x 5", and make the symbols about 1/4", so folks wont have to resize them. I'm asking if I can share mine without getting into trouble.

                OK, here's a set derived from that webpage. I'm sure there are more that might be added at some point.

                Open the LO file and save as scrapbook to add it to your system.

                Problem - the text in the various symbols doesn't scale as you scale the damn symbols. Hunh? Any ideas?

                [edit - replace file with one that has 1/2" and 1/4" diameter symbols per Barry's suggestion below]
                [edit-edit - replace the damn file again with one that has more reasonable font sizes]

                  Here's another version of electrical symbols for LO without the pointless 1/2" sized version and with a legend table.

                      Thank you for sharing your Electrical Key Tim,
                      Deadline looming, and replicating this would have taken some time!
                      thanks again.
