Silver Electrical Contact , Screw Terminal Block are the key parts of electrical switches.Electrical switchgear refers to switches in low-voltage electrical appliances that do not frequently open and close circuits manually, or an introduction switch for power in machine tool circuits. They are divided into knife switches, combination switches, etc., which are used for electrical control equipment in industrial and mining enterprises. Let me explain to you what are the common types of electrical switches?


1. Electrical delay switch. A time delay switch is a switch that uses electronic components relays installed in the switch, as well as a delay switch circuit. The delay switch is further divided into voice control delay switch, light control delay switch, touch delay switch, etc.


2. Electrical tact switch. Tap the switch, then tap the switch button to turn the switch on. When you let go, the switch will turn off. The internal structure of the switch is realized by the force of the metal dome. Tact switches are widely used in electrical equipment due to their small size and light weight, such as audio-visual products, digital products, remote controls, communication products, household appliances, security products, toys, computer products, medical equipment, car buttons and more.


3. Electrical photoelectric switch. Appliance switches are members of the sensor family. It converts the light intensity change between the transmitter and the receiver into current changes for detection purposes. Since the output circuit and input circuit of the photoelectric switch are electrically isolated, it can be used in many occasions. The new generation of photoelectric switching devices manufactured using integrated circuit technology and SMT surface mount technology have intelligent functions such as delay, spread, anti-interference, high reliability, stable working area and self-diagnosis.
