What it represents

An electrically reset counter relay has a separate reset command or documented electronic reset mechanism. Schematics need the count and reset paths to remain distinct.

How to read it

  • Establish reset priority where count and reset signals can occur together.
  • The preview is an original explanation of this function. Match the actual drawing convention to its legend and the selected equipment documentation.

Information to show or reference

  • Identify count terminal
  • Identify reset terminal
  • Reference output and reset sequence

A distinction that matters

Electrical reset changes the counter state; it is not the same as disconnecting the measured circuit.
