Well for many years in the NEMA world we use an operator with a single cam operating a double contact block. Kcress - RE: How to draw a 2-position selector switch and its contacts? (IEC world) JuanBC (Electrical) I CADded three other symbols that all failed their byzantine machinations by various details which this did not. But, I only spent about two hours puzzling this mess out. You can't continue that symbolism without mirroring the contact. Why "completely shocking"? Note they (freakishly) show the dashed side of their Vs as being the ON position and that mechanically associates with physically shoving the dashed-to-contact in that direction to physically operate it. I actually think they've dropped them for saner pastures. Texas Instruments has lost many of our component selections due to the vapid IEC symbols they use. IEC symbolism is so bad that I and several other engineers I know will simply exclude any and all integrated circuit offerings for our designs if they're provided in IEC. The 5-minute mark on the video is more relevant to what I've explained above.I can well understand a lot of people being shocked, electrocuted too, with these lame symbols. This tutorial on creating a new symbol will guide you in more detail. The screenshot above is from the IEEE library but if you're using IEC, the steps will be the same. Give the new symbol a name (perhaps "Hand/Auto switch").Choose the library folder you want to save the new symbol in.Move the wiper position if you wish so you end up with something like this.Under the "Home" tab, choose "Open Block" at the far right.Select the 3-position selector switch in the library.If indeed the switch you need is a hand/auto with no "OFF" position (genuine 2-position selector switch), I'd recommend using the default 3-position selector switch as a template and create your own customised 2-position hand/auto selector switch from that. Most of the hand/auto selector switches I've seen also have an "OFF" position, that's why the two symbols we added to the default Sk圜AD library were 1) on/off and 2) a 3-position selector switch.
