Understand the difference.

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

PROX MAG

IEEE / ANSI

ANSI/IEEE Magnetic proximity switch form

This reference locates magnetic proximity switch in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented magnetic switches family. A magnetic proximity switch detects a documented magnetic target or field condition. The drawing identifies supply and output where applicable, and the equipment detail identifies the magnet or actuator. The public library uses HPX1M for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number.

Magnetic. Autodesk IEEE Symbol Preview: Magnetic Switches, block HPX1M. Matching functional counterpart linked separately. Independently drawn educational geometry; not a certified IEEE glyph or database identifier.

A distinction that matters

A magnetic proximity input is different from a relay coil operating its own contacts.
