Where are the symbols?

They are generated in the ./dxf folder when the generate_dxf.py script is run. See 'img' folder for example output.

Design:

Symbols are drawn by default where 1 block = 20 units x 20 units = 1/8" x 1/8" There is no claim that these symbols adhere to any sort of official standard.

Purpose:

This program is intended to bootstrap an electrical CAD symbol library by generating common symbols in .dxf format. The symbols are all aligned to a common 2D grid and have a consistent style. Since they are generated using common building blocks a change to how a Normally Open contact is drawn will require (if kept to the same block dimensions) no changes to the rest of the library and it can easily be proliferated throughout.
