2. Push switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push_switch

   A push switch (button) is a momentary or non-latching switch which causes a temporary change in the state of an electrical circuit only while the switch is physically actuated. An automatic mechanism (i.e. a spring ) returns the switch to its default position immediately afterwards, restoring the initial circuit condition.

3. Touch switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touch_switch

   Video demonstrating the operation of a touch-sensitive lamp A touch-sensitive lamp is a combination of a lamp and a touch switch. They act on the principle of body capacitance, activated by human touch rather than a flip, push-button, or other mechanical switch. They are popular as desk and nightstand lamps. Touch-sensitive lamp switches may be ...

4. Switch - Wikipedia

   The most common type is a "push-to-make" (or normally-open or NO) switch, which makes contact when the button is pressed and breaks when the button is released. Each key of a computer keyboard, for example, is a normally-open "push-to-make" switch. A "push-to-break" (or normally-closed or NC) switch, on the other hand, breaks contact when the ...

5. Push-button - Wikipedia

   A push-button (also spelled pushbutton) or simply button is a simple switch mechanism to control some aspect of a machine or a process. Buttons are typically made out of hard material, usually plastic or metal. [1] The surface is usually flat or shaped to accommodate the human finger or hand, so as to be easily depressed or pushed.

6. Silicone rubber keypad - Wikipedia

   On depression of the switch, the webbing uniformly deforms to produce a tactile response. When pressure is removed from the switch, the webbing returns to its neutral position with positive feedback. To make an electronic switch, a carbon or gold pill is placed on the base of the switch center which contacts onto a printed circuit board when ...

7. IEC 60364 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60364

   The latest versions of many European wiring regulations (e.g., BS 7671 in the UK) follow the section structure of IEC 60364 very closely, but contain additional language to cater for historic national practice and to simplify field use and determination of compliance by electricians and inspectors. National codes and site guides are meant to ...

8. Teletouch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teletouch

   Using technology that it purchased from a Packard supplier, Auto-Lite, this push-button system proved problematic as the electric motor was insufficient to move the car out of Park on a steep hill, and would pop the circuit breaker; electrical contact problems, wiring problems and other issues were prevalent even when new; and the problems ...

9. Multiway switching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_switching

   In building wiring, multiway switching is the interconnection of two or more electrical switches to control an electrical load from more than one location.A common application is in lighting, where it allows the control of lamps from multiple locations, for example in a hallway, stairwell, or large room.
