To access CADD template files with predefined drafting
settings, go to the Student Companion Website, select
Student Downloads, Drafting Templates, and then the
appropriate template file. Use the templates to create new
designs, as a resource for drawing and model content, or
for inspiration when developing your own templates. Use
the ASME-Inch and ASME-Metric drafting templates that
follow ASME, ISO, and related mechanical drafting
standards for electronic drawing problems, unless
otherwise specified by your instructor. Use architectural-
style templates for electrical problems, unless otherwise
specified by your instructor. Drawing templates include
standard sheet sizes and formats, and a variety of
appropriate drawing settings and content. You can also use
a utility such as the AutoCAD DesignCenter to add content
from the drawing templates to your own drawings and
templates. Consult with your instructor to determine which
template drawing and drawing content to use.

CHAPTER 20 ELECTRICAL AND
ELECTRONIC DRAFTING PROBLEMS
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read all instructions before you begin working, unless oth-
erwise specified by your instructor.
2. Use the attached engineering layouts to prepare each draw-
ing. Refer to chapter coverage for symbol and component
dimensions and refer to previous drawings for information
as you progress to each drawing.
3. Use an ASME Y14.1 or ASME Y14.1M standard border and
title block unless otherwise specified in the problem in-
structions or by your instructor.
4. Prepare well-balanced, easy-to-read drawings. Most draw-
ings have no scale.
5. Many of the following problems contain symbols that are
duplicated multiple times. These electrical problems dem-
onstrate the power of CADD when you create one symbol
and have the ability to use it several times on one or more
drawings.
6. Additional information is provided for some problems.
7. Estimate unknown dimensions based proportionally on
given features and dimensions.
