Power supply on off switch symbol.

Iec 5010 the power on off symbol line within a circle is used on buttons that switch a device between on and fully off states. My question is what is its origin.

A flip of the switch in one direction turns the device on and a flip in the other turns the device off. To turn the power washer off press. I on but the o is really an interrupted circle with a line through it. O means the power is off and means the power is on.

The power switch is a rocker switch and it has two symbols on the face. Iec 60417 5009 the standby symbol line partially within a broken circle indicates a sleep mode or low power state. To turn the power washer on press the down on the power switch. It does not really represent off it represents low power.

I know i line and o circle symbols are used to specify a switch that turn on and off the power supply. They are the international symbols for power on and power off. The power switch on the back of the case is actually for the power supply installed in the computer. Because i thought that it represent a power line that can be plugged on symbol and a closed line and thus without power supply but seen that in wikipedia said that it can come from 1 and 0 used in binary to represent on and off bits i don t know.
