Dans les schémas d'origine anglo-saxonne ou japonaise, les tubes électroniques sont systématiquement identifiés à l'aide d'un repère commençant par «V» et suivi d'un nombre. Les ouvrages français qui reprennent les mêmes schémas exploitent volontiers ces repères. Cependant, dans leurs propres schémas, les Français n'utilisent pas spontanément de tels repères pour les tubes électroniques. 4, record 1, French, - tube%20%C3%A9lectronique
