Soft starter (thyristor) symbol (DWG block)

Soft starter (thyristor) is a ready-to-use AutoCAD block named IEC_SOFT_STARTER in the Common electrical symbols (IEC 60617), group “Power switching and protection”. It carries 8 attributes, 2 of them visible, so it works in equipment lists and BlockSync exports.

Attributes

Visible on the drawing: TAG, RATING_KW.

Hidden, they carry the data for schedules: VOLTAGE, CURRENT, RAMP_S, MANUFACTURER, PART_NO, DESC.

Export the attributes of every copy in a drawing to Excel with BlockSync, check them and write the corrections back in one run.

How to use it

  1. Download the ZIP and unzip it. It holds one DWG with the block IEC_SOFT_STARTER.
  2. Open the DWG and copy the block into your drawing, or insert it from the DWG with INSERT.
  3. Double-click a copy to fill in the tag and the other attributes.

The symbol is our own drawing after the common form of IEC 60617, not a certified copy. The library page explains how the symbols relate to the standard.
