All types of Electric Cell and Battery Symbol, Diagram, Circuit

Hi, in this article we are going to see all types of the electric cell symbol and battery symbol. An electric cell is an active device that stores electrical energy. There are different types of cells and batteries such as lithium-ion batteries, lithium polymer batteries, and lead-acid batteries. Anyway, having a background in electrical or electronics engineering, you must know these symbols and diagrams.

Battery Cell Symbol

Here, you can see the symbol of an electric cell. It has two vertical lines. The longer line indicates the positive polarity and the shorter line indicates the negative polarity.

Adjustable Voltage Electric Cell Symbol

The arrow mark on the cell indicates the adjustable voltage function, which means we can vary the output voltage of the cell.

Single Cell Battery Symbol

Single-cell batteries are those which have a single electric cell, single-cell batteries are mostly known as electric cells. The two vertical lines indicate anode and cathode or positive and negative.

Double Cell Battery Symbol

When more than one cell is connected together then it is called a battery. Here, you can see the symbol of double-cell battery.

Multiple Cell Battery Symbol

Here, the dotted lines between two cells indicate that multiple cells are connected together. They may be connected in series or parallel combinations. Here, you can see the circuit symbol of battery.

Lead Acid Battery Pack Symbol

The lead-acid battery has multiple cells placed in a box and the lead-acid battery looks like the below symbol.

Damaged or Failure Battery Symbol

This is mostly used in electrical wiring diagrams and circuit diagrams. When engineers find out a damaged battery in a circuit they use this symbol for communication purposes for servicing or repairing.

Mobile Battery Charge Indication Symbol

You have already seen that in mobile phones, a symbol or indication is used to see the charge level of the mobile battery. Here, you can see that symbol.
