Just getting started with Revit and If I add in say an Electrical Switch it is very large in the 2D view. I attached a screenshot. As you can see in the picture the switch is larger than the light fixture.
The view has a view template that sets the scale to 1/8" = 1'. You could set by the template to none and you can change the scale to 1/4" or whatever you need. However, the template is there for a reason. If you work with a team then talk to someone in charge of standards.
By the way, those symbols look normal for a 1/8" scale plan.
FWIW: Symbols are annotative, just like Text. When you use 1/8" Text Type, it is printed at 1/8" no matter what the View Scale.
