We give a geometrical interpretation of the notion of $\mu$-prolongations of vector fields and of the related concept of $\mu$-symmetry for partial differential equations (extending to PDEs the notion of $\lambda$-symmetry for ODEs). We give in particular a result concerning the relationship between $\mu$-symmetries and standard exact symmetries. The notion is also extended to the case of conditional and partial symmetries, and we analyze the relation between local $\mu$-symmetries and nonlocal standard symmetries.
