Is there any website that offers free electrical part files to incorporate them in drawing.
I often come across some electrical equipment / part that I cannot find the part file of or somewhat close to it on internet either from the company's web page or else. and then I need to simply design it myself most of the times which is very time consuming. I am wondering if there is or are some websites that you can suggest I might look at. that would be helpful.

You could try...
https://us.misumi-ec.com/
or
https://www.mouser.com/
Mouser's site is dense, but they have pretty much everything.
When it gets into specialty stuff, you just have to know who makes what or rely on a Google search.
Here is one that is specific to Electrical Components:

I personally haven't used it, but it has been recommended in the past.
Also, I usually suggest Trace Parts or McMaster Carr for 3D models of commercially available parts
try
www.mcmaster.com
: it's not exclusively electrical parts, but it almost has a little of everything...
