Why should you use BS 1553-3 - Graphical symbols for compressing plant?
It has long been felt that, except in the electrical engineering field, there has been a lack of uniformity in the method adopted for the preparation of schematic diagrams of engineering plants generally, and that there is a need for standardized symbols by which particular items of the plant can conveniently be identified, applying equally to different branches of engineering. Thus, graphical symbols identify and depict electrical and electronic equipment in circuit designs and schematics, while drawing lines between them indicate wires or component leads.
BS 1553-3 guidelines provide its users with a systematic, uniform to enhance documentation and communication in the industry.
