The voltage selector switch changes the two main windings from a parallel connection for 120v only to a series connection for the 120 240v position.
Voltage selector switch circuit.
In addition to the on off switch many circuits contain switches that control how the circuit works or activate different features of the circuit.
Opening a circuit which turns a device off is attained by interrupting a connection in the circuit.
In this post i also write about voltmeter selector switch connection wiring but in the last time i talk and publish diagram about the 3 phase and in this post you will learn how to measure 3 phase 4 wire system voltage using a voltmeter selector switch.
Interpower switches and voltage selector switches.
Voltmeter selector switch wiring which was about the three phase voltage measuring and in which we did not talk about the neutral connection.
In the 120v only position the power of the two main windings are connected in parallel beyond the circuit breakers and full power can be obtained from the 30a 120v receptacle.
Simply defined a switch is a mechanical device used to open and close a circuit.
If incoming power needs to be controlled an easy way to do that is with a switch.
If you were under the impression that switches simply turn circuits on and off.
