Question

Draw the symbols of following electrical components.
(i) Fuse
(ii) Wires joined
(iii) Wire crossed
(iv) Galvanometer

Answer 1

(i) Fuse

(ii) Wires joined

(iii) Wire crossed

(iv) Galvanometer

Explanation:

(i) A fuse is nothing more than a short length of wire designed to melt and separate in the event of excessive current. Please find the symbol for fuse in an electric circuit in the attached picture number 1.

(ii & iii) Wires joined have a dot that represents the junction in an electric circuit. Whereas when wires merely cross each other out without a connection, there is only lines. Please find the symbol for wires joined and wires crossed in an electric circuit in the attached picture number 2.

(iv) A galvanometer is an electromechanical instrument used for detecting and indicating an electric current. Please find the symbol for galvanometer in an electric circuit in the attached picture number 3. Sometimes, the symbol is also written as a circle with the letter G.
