A circuit diagram is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations while a pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components. Unlike a block diagram or layout diagram, a circuit diagram shows the actual electrical connections.
Before talking about a circuit diagram, let us recall circuits. An electrical circuit is a device which provides the complete path for current to flow. A circuit consists of three basic things to function:
A source of voltage
A conductive path which facilitates the movement of charges
A resistor (say, a light bulb) which requires electricity to do work
Apart from the basic requirements, a circuit consists of a number of components which provide different functionalities.
What is Circuit Diagram?
A circuit diagram is a simplified representation of the components of an electrical circuit using either the images of the distinct parts or standard symbols. It shows the relative positions of all the elements and their connections to one another. It is often used to provide a visual representation of the circuit to an electrician. The following figure shows a simple circuit diagram.
