In electrical engineering, a switch is an electrical component that can break an electrical circuit, interrupting the current or diverting it from one conductor to another.
A switch may be directly manipulated by a human as a control signal to a system, such as a computer keyboard button, or to control power flow in a circuit, such as a light switch.
The ELECTRICAL SWITCH is a control consisting of a mechanical or electrical or electronic device for making or breaking or changing the connections in a circuit.
An ideal switch would have no voltage drop when closed, and would have no limits on voltage or current rating. It would have zero rise time and fall time during state changes, and would change state without "bouncing" between on and off positions.
Light switch In building wiring, light switches are installed at convenient locations to control lighting and occasionally other circuits. The light switch was invented in 1917 by William J. Newton.presently,gang switch are used in home wiring in Bangladesh. light holder Generally, A device for holding a lamp or light is called light holder.
In a board sense, A shallow, flat-bottomed, asymmetric dish, shaped like the mouth of a jug, usually with a handle. A device designed to connect an electric lamp to a circuit and to support it mechanically.
Electricity electricity ismovement of charge round a circuit. We call this electric current. Electricity is a form of energy resulting from the existence of charged particles (such as electrons or protons), either statically as an accumulation of charge or dynamically as a current. Michael Faraday is known as the Father of Electricity.
power supply A power supply is a device that supplies electric power to an electrical load. The term is most commonly applied to electric power converters that convert one form of electrical energy to another, though it may also refer to devices that convert another form of energy to electrical energy. Every power supply must obtain the energy it supplies to its load, as well as any energy it consumes while performing that task, from an energy source. Depending on its design, a power supply may obtain energy from: Electrical energy transmission systems. Common examples of this include power supplies that convert AC line voltage to DC voltage. Energy storage devices such as batteries and fuel cells,IPS
Electrical switches operate fairly in a basic design the most common being the on/off toggle switch. An on/off switch normally breaks the current when in the 'off' position. When it's in the 'on' position, the current gets completed. The function of the electrical switch is to control the current that travels between the load and the power source.
Functions and Roles of Switches Necessary in Our Daily Life Switches Serve as an Interface Between Humans and Machines Each morning, we stop the alarm clock when we wake up, turn on the lights and then the TV, perhaps to watch the morning news. Switches are key components in every facet of our daily lives, including telephones, mobile phones, fax machines, personal computers, automobiles, washing machines, microwaves, video game controllers and more. We, the people of modern society, are surrounded by a variety of electronic devices, and switches are the
tools that connect us to those devices. Switches give devices users instructions, such as to turn the power on or off or adjust the audio volume. At the same time, switches serve as an interface to inform users of operating conditions by the clicking or movement of knobs .
