Diagram of equipment

Diagrams are drawn to show the setup of the equipment being used.

Diagrams should be:

  • Drawn in pencil. Lines should be firm and continuous with no gaps (not sketchy).
  • As large as possible.
  • Labelled using separate ruled lines. These should be spread out with a bullet point on one end and a clearly written label on the other.
