ansi warning icon on a drawing
i need to put a stored energy warning on a drawing. the boss wants an icon to make the warning stand out to the customer for sign-off. does anyone know where i can find the proper icon for this, that follows ansi drawing standards. i am using inventor v7 sp1.
thanks,
matt

the only thing i've ever seen or used is caution!, followed by the note and enclosed in a bold lined or shadowed line box.
i agree with jay. i searched and can not find anything for stored energy. caution! would be your best bet.
i've seen symbols for electrostatic discharge warnings. i found them in dod-std-100. i don't have it in front of my right now to be more specific as to the warning, its symbol, or its application on drawings. dod-std-100 is more or less dead and replaced with asme standarads. when i get to my copy of the standard, i'll see if i can find a current cross-reference.

for some pleasure reading, the round table recommends
the esd symbol may work, but don't know if it is the same as stored energy. the esd symbol probably should be on all electronic dwgs anyway.
thanks, everyone! i did a search for ansi z535 (i think that's the one, it's early) and found a site that makes labels. caution, warning, and danger were there and spelled out for there uses. i grabbed the bitmap, inserted it into the drawing as a custom symbol, and wrote a note explaining the hazard. boss is happy. cheers,
matt
