Circuit breakers, contactors, intermediate relays, thermal relays, buttons, indicator lights, universal transfer switches and travel switches are the eight most common components in electrical control circuits. The editor introduces the principles and applications of common electrical components with pictures and texts. Get a handle on how these components work in normal times by understanding their role in the electrical circuit.
1. Circuit breaker
Low-voltage circuit breakers are also called automatic air switches, which can be switched manually, and can be used to distribute electric energy, start asynchronous motors infrequently, and protect power lines and motors. Automatically cut off the circuit.

2. Contactor
The contactor is composed of two parts, the electromagnetic mechanism and the contact system. The common coil voltages of the contactor are AC220V, AC380V and DC220V. The electromagnetic mechanism of the contactor is composed of a coil, a moving iron core (armature) and a static iron core; the contactor contact system is composed of two parts, the main contact and the auxiliary contact, the main contact is used to switch the main circuit, and the auxiliary contact is used to control in the circuit.

Stainless steel: Stainless steel has the characteristics of high strength, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance. It is one of the commonly used materials for making metal buttons.
Aluminum alloy: The aluminum alloy material has the characteristics of lightness, high strength, and good thermal conductivity, and is often used to make metal buttons.
Copper: Copper has good electrical and thermal conductivity, and has a beautiful appearance. It is often used to make high-end metal buttons.
Brass: Brass has good machinability and corrosion resistance, and is golden in color, and is often used to make metal buttons.
Titanium alloy: Titanium alloy material has the characteristics of high strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance. It is a high-grade metal button material.
The above are the main materials of metal buttons switch. Metal buttons of different materials are different in appearance, performance and price. Choosing the right material can be considered according to specific application requirements and cost budget.

Waterproof push button switches, as the name suggests, are switches that can be operated with wet hands. In some humid environments, it can be used with confidence because it has good sealing performance. The highest IP rating of the waterproof switch is IP68. The waterproof button switch has a reasonable design, long service life, high temperature resistance, and current shock resistance, which can meet your specific use needs.
Precautions
The specific application of these waterproof switches is restricted by many factors, such as the installation method and the installation direction of the product, the pressure difference of the airflow acting on the product, the strength of the fluid rebound and the working voltage. We also need to prevent the intrusion of corrosive gases or the intrusion of substances.
The waterproof metal switch cooperates with the circuit breaker to perform switch operations according to the needs of the system operation mode, and change the system operation wiring mode.
The signal light indicator is a device used to communicate with other drivers. It provides information about the driver’s intention and helps others take appropriate action.
· Automotive turn signal lights
· Traffic lights
The first signal light car was introduced in the late 1800s, and they were used to indicate the direction of traffic. These days, they also show if a vehicle is turning left or right, has its hazard lights on, or indicates a right turn by flashing its right-hand indicator.
A big part of being a safe driver is being able to inform other motorists of your intentions. Signaling lights are both at the frontal and rear part of the vehicle and are sometimes also called “blinkers” and “signal light indicators.” Depending on the side you flicked on, your car will indicate whether you’re turning left or right.
The button switch may be the simplest component in the electrical circuit, but it controls the lifeblood of the entire control circuit, so it is also called the "master switch". Understanding all kinds of button switches and using them skillfully and flexibly can make us get twice the result with half the effort.
Button switches are used to switch on or off small current circuits in a short period of time, and are mainly used in electrical control circuits. The current allowed to flow through the button switch is small, generally not more than 5A.
The button is generally composed of a button cap, a return spring, a bridge-type moving contact, a static contact, a pillar connecting rod, and a housing. The opening and closing state of the contacts when the button is not subjected to external force (that is, static), is divided into a stop button (that is, a dynamic break button), a start button (that is, a dynamic close button) and a reset button (that is, a combination of a dynamic close and a dynamic break. integrated button). When the button is under the action of external force, the opening and closing state of the contact changes: the normally open contact under static state is closed, and the normally closed contact under static state is open.
