prints
Electronic prints include isometric wiring diagrams, elementary wiring
diagrams, block diagrams, schematic diagrams, and interconnection
diagrams. The functions of electronic prints and electrical prints are the
same except that electronic prints are generally harder to read because they
are more detailed and complex. Electronic prints often appear with color
coded wiring as shown in the following list:
