Image result for power button



As we are all familiar this symbol is used in nearly every electronic device.
The symbol signification is the power symbol or standby symbol. Its signifier takes place as a circle with a line running through its arch. It signified by turning devices off and on or on standby without fully disconnecting the electronic. The symbol is actually a product of both the off symbol represented by “0” and the on by “1”. These symbols are universally recognized as symbols of on/off. I feel the myth that could be associated with this is that the devices are not truly off but only on standby and still reserve some energy in use.
