Side-by-side reference

Understand the difference.

Compare the meaning, drawing context and source references of two entries. A similar graphic or shared abbreviation does not establish equivalence.

ANSI/IEEE relay reset coil symbol

The reset-coil form is a separately drawn operating element of the associated latch relay. Its tag ties it to the retained mechanism rather than to a new unrelated relay, even if the reset appears on another rung.

Form evidence
Autodesk IEEE-oriented Relays and Contacts functional form. Autodesk explicitly publishes this block under IEEE Symbol Preview. The counterpart is the matching functional concept; no equivalence of every detailed standard graphic is asserted.

A distinction that matters

A separately drawn reset coil is not an extra set of power contacts.

Relay reset coil

A reset coil releases or changes the retained state of its associated latching relay. The shared device identity links this coil to the latch mechanism and contacts elsewhere on the schematic.

A distinction that matters

A reset coil is not a second unrelated relay simply because it is drawn on another rung.
