ANSI/IEEE Manually released latching device form

This reference locates manually released latching device in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented mechanical controls, latching device family. This qualifier identifies release of a latching mechanism by manual action. The retained mechanism is released through a documented manual action. Resetting the mechanism and removing electrical supply can be different events. The public library uses Q1020604 for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number.
