1.0 GENERAL

The General Electric Company Information Standard, GEISPUB 12.00, describes standard data elements and their codfor units of measure The standard is based on the Air TransAssociation Specification No. 200, which uses a two-characcode to identify units of measure beyond those normallyencountered in engineering documentation work, i.e., bag, cpail, etc. The purpose is to provide uniform data interchangecapability within the Company.

2.0 USE OF UNITS OF MEASURE CODES ON ENGINEERING DOCUMENTATION

Since engineering documentation provides the basic informtion for accumulating quantities of materials used within aproduct, it is desirable that the codes and abbreviations useunits of measure be the same. Since in this situation it is nofeasible, the standard abbreviations for units of measure asdescribed in Section K13.1 shall continue to be used as in tpast. When Units of Measure Codes are also desired onengineering drawings, lists, etc., they may be shown elsewhon the document. For example, on a parts list, the code canshown as an additional line entry at the bottom of the list.

Example -

Units of Measure Code ST = SETRL = ROLL

In general, such information should only be shown on the plist, wiring list, etc. If the list is integral with the drawing, thenthe line entry should be made within the list on the drawing.

3.0 UNITS OF MEASURE CODE

The Units of Measure Code is comprised of the following eicategories:

• Quantity • Area • Length • Volume• Container • Weight • Liquid • Dry

The total code listing is specified below. It should be notedthat codes with an asterick (*) conflict with abbreviations inSection K13.1. All others either agree with or are not includein Section K13.1.

1.0 SCOPE

This standard establishes the symbols for units in all apptions in the fields of electrical science and electrical engining, including use of text and equations, in graphs and diagrams, and artworks for both commercial and governmen

2.0 PURPOSE

The purpose of this standard is to present the intent of ANIEEE STD 260-1978. The current recommendations empthe symbolic character of these designations and rigidlyprescribe the manner in which they shall be treated. Theconcept of the unit symbol is adopted in this standard.

3.0 REFERENCE DOCUMENTS

ANSI/IEEE STD 260-1978, General Electric Drafting ManSection K16 - SI Metric, Section K13.1 - Abbreviations.

4.0 REQUIREMENTS

“Letter Symbol” as a technical term does not have the sameaning as either “name” or “abbreviation.” An abbreviatis a letter or a combination of letters by which conventionrepresents a word in a particular language; therefore anabbreviation may be different in a different language. Asymbol represents a quantity or a unit and is, therefore,independent of language.

4.1 Letter Symbols - Letter symbols include symbols forphysical quantities and symbols for the units in which thequantities are measured (unit symbols).

A quantity symbol is, in general, a single letter (Example electrical current) specified as to general form of type, anmodified when appropriate by one or more subscripts orsuperscripts. In a given work the same letter symbol shouappear throughout for the same physical quantity, regardthe units employed or of special values assigned.

A unit symbol is a letter or a group of letters (Example mmmillimeter), or a special sign, that may be used in place oname of the unit.

4.1 Alphabets - Letter symbols are restricted to the Englisand Greek alphabets. Greek letters that may be confusedEnglish letters are avoided.

4.2 Quantity Symbols - Quantity symbols may be used inmathematical expressions in any way consistent with goomathematical usage. The product of two quantities a, b, iindicated by writing ab. The quotient may be indicated bywriting

ab

, a / b, or ab−1

If more than one slash (/) is used in any algebraic term,parentheses must be inserted to remove any ambiguity. Thefore, one may write (a/b)/c, or a/(b/c), but not a/b/c.

Subscripts and superscripts are widely used with quantitysymbols. Several subscripts or superscripts, sometimes seprated by commas, may be attached to a single letter. Bewarfar as local clarity permits, subscripts and superscripts shounot be attached to other subscripts and superscripts. A symthat has been modified by a superscript should be enclosedparentheses before an exponent is attached.

Conflicts that occur because different quantities are assigneidentical symbols in the same or different standard lists shobe resolved in one of the following ways:

1. By use of a reserve symbol (alternate symbol) if one islisted.

2. By use of a subscript selected by the author for one ormore of the conflicting requirements.

3. By use of upper-case letters as variants for lower-caseletters and vice versa, but only if no ambiguity results.

4.3 Unit Symbols - The distinction between upper- and lowecase letters shall be followed. The form of unit symbols shathe same for both singular and plural, and not followed by aperiod except at the end of a sentence.

In the complete expression for a quantity, a space should bebetween the numerical value and the unit symbol. For exam35 mm, not 35mm, and 2.371 m, not 2.371m. When thequantity is used in an adjectival sense, a hyphen is often uslieu of a space between the number and the unit name orbetween the number and the symbol (except when the firstcharacter of the symbol is not a letter, as in ˚C).

Examples:

A 3-meter pole .. The length is 3 meters.

A 35-mm film .. The width is 35 mm.

Exception:

No space is left between the numerical value and thesymbols for degree, minute, and second of plane angle.

When a compound unit is formed by multiplication of two ormore other units, its symbol consists of the symbols for theseparate units joined by a raised dot (for example, N•m fornewton meter). The dot may be omitted in the case of familcompounds such as watt-hour (symbol Wh) if no confusionwould result. It may also be omitted where symbols areseparated by an exponent as in N•m2kg-2. Hyphens shall not beused in symbols for compound units. Positive and negativeexponents may be used with the symbols for units.

When a compound unit is formed by division of one unit byanother, its symbol is constructed in one of the followingforms:

In simple cases use of the slash is preferred, but in no casemore than one slash, or a slash followed by a product, be uin the same expression unless parentheses are inserted toambiguity. For example:

J/(mol•K) or J•mol-1•K-1 or(J/mol)/K but not J/mol/K or J/mol•K.

In complicated cases negative powers should be used. Thenotation for products and quotients of unit symbols is inten-tionally made more explicit than that given in 4.2 for quantitsymbols because some unit symbols consist of more than letter.

Letter symbols and mathematical notations shall not be mixwith unit names in the same expression. For example, usejoules per kilogram of J/kg. Do not use joules/ kilogram orjoules/kg, or J/kilogram.

4.4 Use - The use of unit symbols in place of full names of tunits is frequently desirable where space is restricted. Theipresupposes that the reader will find them intelligible. If theis any doubt that the reader will understand a symbol, the nof the unit should be written in full. When an unfamiliar unitsymbol is first used in text, it should be followed by its namparentheses or the name should be given with the symbol parentheses; the symbol may be used alone thereafter. Extory notes or keys should be included where appropriate ondrawings and in tabular matter.

4.5 Lists of symbols- Symbols for units for general use arelisted alphabetically by name of unit in Table 1.

Obsolescent units, such as apothecaries’ weights, and unitused almost exclusively in narrow fields of commerce, suchthe bushel and hundredweight, have been omitted. Deprecsymbols are listed in Table 2.

Attachment of letters to a unit symbol as a means of givinginformation about the quantity under consideration is incorrThus MWe for “megawatts electrical (power),” Vac for “voltac,” and KJt for “kilojoules thermal (energy)” are not acceptable. For this reason, no attempt should be made to constrequivalents of the abbreviations “psia” and “psig,” so oftenused to distinguish between absolute and gage pressure.

If the context leaves any doubt as to which is meant, the w“pressure” must be qualified appropriately. For example:

“.. at a gage pressure of 13kPa”“.. at an absolute pressure of 13 kPa”

m / s or m⋅s−1 or

When space limitations make it necessary to juxtapose infomation about the quantity being measured with the unit namor unit symbol, such information must be separated from theunit symbol by a space, or by a comma followed with a spacor the equivalent. Thus the following examples are approprifor use on nameplates, gage scale plates, table headings, glabels, etc:

rating - 115 V ackPa, gagekPa, (abs)

On the other hand, letters may be attached to a unit symbolwhere needed to properly identify the unit involved. In suchsymbols as in Hg, mmHg, and ftH20, the suffixes are needed tidentify the units, which are units of pressure, not of length.Similarly, it is proper to write BtuIT, calTH, galUS, etc, todistinguish from the related but different units Btu60, cal125galUK, etc.

The distinction between upper-case and lower-case lettersshown in the list is part of the standardization of the symbolfollowing international rules. Changing the letter case changthe symbol and violates this standard. There are situations which the standard symbols cannot be used, for example, wthe printing equipment has no provision for Greek letters, orfor lower-case letters. These situations are discussed in 4.6

4.6 Symbols to Be Used with Limited Character Sets - Thisportion of the standard is to be applied when only a limited sof characters is available to express unit symbols, and whenunit symbols are intended for interpretation by human beingSuch applications often arise when text is transmitted byteleprinter, or when information is prepared for computerdisplay. The limited-character-set symbols shall not be usedwhen the available character set would permit the use of thegeneral-use standard symbols. The fact that the character slimited leads to a few cases of ambiguity, but in almost allcases this ambiguity is theoretical rather than real, whichmeans that no confusion in human interpretation can reasonably be expected. In the very few cases where only a limitedcharacter set is available and the application of the symbolsherein would lead to a possible real confusion, the unit namshall be written in full.

Various types of character-set limitations are listed below,together with the rules to be followed.

4.6.1 Character Set Lacks Greek Letters:

(a) For µ substitute u.

Example: µA microampere uA.

Remark: In typewritten text or masters prepared forphotoreproduction, a “tail” should be added to the u byhand.

(b) For Ω substitute Ohm.

Example: The symbol for kilohm becomes KOhm.

Remark: Note the use of the uppercase O, where avail-able, in the substitute symbol Ohm, following the rules 4.3.

4.6.2 Character Set Lacks Superscript Symbols:

(a) For ˚C, ˚F, and ˚R substitute, C, F, and R.

Example: a temperature of 12 degrees Celsius becomesC.

(b) For units of plane angle substitute as follows:

degree ˚ use degminute ' use minsecond " use sec

4.6.3 Character Set Lacks Superscript Numerals – Usenumerals on the line. Do not use any space between theprincipal unit symbol and its exponent, whether positive ornegative.

Example: The symbol for square millimeter becomes mmThe symbol for watt per square meter becomes W/m2 oW•m-2.

Where it is possible to raise ordinary numericals to a superscript position, as it is in manually typewritten work, thisshould be done. For example, W•m-2.

4.6.4 Character Set Lacks Raised Dots – Use a dot on the line(period) to indicate multiplication of units.

Example: N.m for newton meter.

Where the platen can be rolled, as in manual typing, the doshould be raised.

4.6.5 Character Set Limited To A Single Case – Use symbolslisted in Table 1, in the single available case (whether uppecase or lower case), without change. The examples below given in upper case only for simplicity.

Example: Use M for mega and M for mili.

Very few units are used with both these prefixes, and in thefew cases where both are possible, such as MW for milliwaor megawatt, the context almost always makes the intentioclear. Where the context does not eliminate all reasonablechance of ambiguity, the unit names shall be in full.

Example: Use P for pico and P for peta.

Example: Use H for henry and H for hour.

Example: Use S for second (time) and S for siemens.

Example: Use T for tesla and T for metric ton. Confusionunlikely because of context and because the tesla is sucvery large unit of magnetic flux density that it almost alwappears with submultiple prefixes. If necessary to avoidpossible ambiguity, use “metric ton” in full.

4.6.6 Examples of Symbols For Limited Character – Table 3shows examples of how the foregoing principles may beapplied.

The column labeled “Form I” applies for data systems that the capability to use upper-case and lower-case letters, digand at least the graphic characters apostrophe ('), quotatiomark ("), hyphen (-), period (.), and solidus (/), but which donot have the capability to use the Greek letters or place thedegree sign (˚), letters, digits, and signs in superscript posi

The column labeled “Form II” applies for data systems thatfurther limited in that they have only one case (either upperlower), and lack the apostrophe and quotation mark.
