Here is the result of my research:

At autosite.com I found the following article:
"Automotive Wiring":
Her you will find the basics for automotive wiring diagrams.
http://www.autosite.com/garage/subsys/bawire02.asp

See also at the "Manteinance - System: Electrical and Electronic"
section the following pages:
"Wiring and Circuit Diagrams":

"Mastering Complex WIRING DIAGRAMS" BY JORGE MENCHU
'Complicated wiring schematics offer a wealth of information but can
be awfully difficult to decipher. Dividing them into smaller, more
manageable bits can make your job go a heck of a lot smoother. Here?s
how to go about it.'
