ANSI/IEEE Latched pull-cord switch form
IEEE-library form of latched pull-cord switch: this representation distinguishes a pull-cord actuator whose operated state is latched.
In plain English
What does ANSI/IEEE Latched pull-cord switch form mean?
This reference locates latched pull-cord switch in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented miscellaneous switches family. This representation distinguishes a pull-cord operating mechanism whose operated state is latched. The public library uses HPC11L for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number.
A simple example
Read the operating mechanism and the contact reference state together. Cross-reference every associated contact to the same device and show which movement, signal or reset changes its condition; the symbol alone does not establish the complete switching sequence.
What the drawings help you do
Document the release/reset action and the normally open or normally closed contacts actually fitted. Latching behaviour differs from the pull-cord operation method alone. Document the release/reset action and the normally open or normally closed contacts actually fitted. Latching behaviour differs from the pull-cord operation method alone. The linked functional counterpart explains the same operating role in its own drawing context; agreement of every detailed convention mark is not asserted.

- Signal
- Electrical information passed between devices, rather than necessarily the main power supply.
- Rating
- A value stating the conditions for which equipment is specified.

How to read it
- Document the release/reset action and the NO or NC contacts actually fitted.
- Latching behaviour differs from the pull-cord actuation method alone.
Information to show or reference
- Identify the associated device, circuit or diagram boundary.
- Document the release/reset action and the NO or NC contacts actually fitted.
- Cross-reference the equipment data, terminal mapping or operating-state legend needed to interpret the form.
A distinction that matters
Latching behaviour differs from the pull-cord actuation method alone.
