[edit] List of symbol

A list of symbols is available here. Snipre —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.132.225.8 (talk) 15:01, 20 September 2007 (UTC) alias Biglama 13:32, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Those look like a cut and paste job from Visio or maybe Dia. I don't know if any professional body endorses those symbols at all. User A1 02:15, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
These symbols were made in Inkscape (self-made) and their origin come from some P&ID's used in industry. Have a look at the EN ISO 10628 and ISO 14617 to check if they comply with international standards. I received the same symbols during my studies as chemical engineer.

But I'm not sure about the english name. My list is in german and I try to translate to french (see fr:Schéma tuyauterie et instrumentation). Snipre —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.132.225.8 (talk) 09:10, 21 September 2007 (UTC) alias Biglama 13:32, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
That would explain where the similarities are, I'll add them in, thanks. By the way, the way to sign your posts is with four tilde symbols, not by typing your name : ~~~~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by User A1 (talkcontribs) 12:19, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
