Chapter 6, Problem 10RQ
Program Plan Intro
Switch:
- A switch refers to an electrical device which can make or break an electrical circuit.
- Switches can be operated manually or by some sensing element such as pressure, temperature, or flow.
- A switch consists of one or more sets of contacts that can be operated simultaneously, sequentially, or alternately.
Explanation of Solution
b.
NC pushbutton switch:
- The abbreviation NC stands for a Normally Closed pushbutton switch.
- It will be initially at closed contact and will be opened when the switch or coil is energized...
Explanation of Solution
c.
Break-make pushbutton switch:
- Break-before-make pushbutton is a switch whose top level section contacts are Normally Closed and bottom level section contacts are Normally Open.
