Voltage Selector Switch Circuit

One way to classify switches is by the connections they make.

Voltage selector switch circuit.

Most electronic circuits contain an on off switch. 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. Opening a circuit which turns a device off is attained by interrupting a connection in the circuit. On the other hand if the power supply has a voltage selector switch based on the delon circuit for 115 230 v computer atx power supplies typically are in this category the selector switch would have to be put in the 230 v position and the required voltage would be 325 vdc 230 2.

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 addition to the on off switch many circuits contain switches that control how the circuit works or activate different features of the circuit. Simply defined a switch is a mechanical device used to open and close a circuit.

If you were under the impression that switches simply turn circuits on and off. 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.
