An intermediated switch is where three points control the same circuit.

This is very versatile switch

and can be used for most lighting situations, but in reality it is more expensive, so you would
normally only use it when needed. That is when you have three switches controlling one light, then
the middle one needs to be an intermediate. A push button switch to make switch allows electricity
to flow between its two contacts held in. When the button is released, the circuit is broken. This
type of switch is also known as a normally open switch.

Limit switch are used for controlling, limit switch are used for controlling machinery as part of a
control system, as a safety interlock, or to count objects passing a point. A limit is a
electromechanical device that consist of an actuator mechanically linked to a set of contacts. When
a object comes into contact with the actuator, the device operates the contact to make or break an
electrical connection.

This type of switch consist of c-shape diaphgram. According to pressure, this diaphgram is indicating
pressure. These switches are used to sense pressure of air,water or oil, in industrial aplication. This
switch operates, when pressure of system is increase or decrease from set point.

A float switch is type of level sensor, a device used to detect the level of liquid within a tank. The
switch may be used to control a pump, as an indicator, an alarm, or to control other devices.

This types of switches of temperature sensing devices like rtd and thermostat. This operates
according to the value of measured tmperature.

(Toggle switch) this type of switch is commonly used in household application to on and off electrical
appliances.vit has a lever by which we can move up or down to on and off appliances.

(rotary switch) this type of switce is used to connect one line with one of the many lines. Nob of
multimeter, channel selector,range selector metering devices band selector in communication
devices are the examples of this type of switch. This switch is same as single pole multi throw switch.
But the arrangement of this switch is different.

(joystick switch) a joystick switch is actuated by a lever free to move in more than one axis of
motion. One or more of several switch contact mechanism are actuated depending on which way
the lever is pushed , and sometimes by how far it is pushed. The circle and dot notation on the
switch symbol represent the direction of joystick lever motion required to actuated contact. Joystick
hand switches are commonly used for crane and robot control.
