AutoCAD - standard floor plan switch symbol

I am looking for a standard switch symbol to use that might be in AutoCAD natively. The attached picture shows one. I have been trying to make my own, but I cannot seem to find a font with such a tall 'S'. Where do people go to for these common architectural blocks?

That's an easy one where you can actually use the TEXT character "$"

But if you really want to have a symbol to represent it, then the latest AutoCAD 2023 comes with electrical symbol installation:

Draw the S, and in Properties, give it a width factor less than one [how much less, you can experiment with].
