Switches

In electrical engineering, a switch is an electrical component that can disconnect or connect the conducting path in an electrical circuit, interrupting the electric current or diverting it from one conductor to another. An ideal switch would have no voltage drop when closed, and would have no limits on voltage or current rating. With so many types of electrical switches available in the market, it is imperative to know what makes a particular switch different from the other. In other words, every switch has its own unique feature, and by understanding its specific functioning, we can actually make a better purchase considering our requirements.
