In an architect's drawing, data jack question on the triangle

[Tsaico]

I just want to make sure i have this right,
When looking at an architect's drawing, the data jack is represented by a triangle.

white triangle- single jack
half black and white triangle- two jacks
Black triangle is 4 jacks

I did a quick google, and found reference between triangles, but they were either dated (referring to telephone), or didn't have the variations, just the single white triangle or just differed in what they mean. (like a solid is a data, but a white triangle is a telephone, with the split one being both)

Negative

On the electrical plans for the building I'm renovating (as well as previous projects):

Triangle = Comm Outlet(s)
Circle with Lines through it = Power Outlet(s)

White Triangle = Single Data Jack
White/Black Triangle = Voice/Data Jack (In our case it's double data since voice is VOIP).
Black Triangle = Telephone Jack

These drawings went IFC (Issued for Construction) November 9th, 2011

While there are some industry standards, any firm can choose to not use them as long as they provide a key that says what each symbol means.

True.

OP, there should be a legend on the first page of the plans which tells you what they stand for.

The symbols I quoted are based off ANSI Y32.9-1972, ANSI A117.1-1986, & Federal Register 56-155 (ADA)

RR has got it right. IIRC multiple jacks are labeled with the number next to the triangle.
