The illustration is the interior of a common two wire heat-only household thermostat, used to regulate a gas-fired heater via an electric gas valve. Similar mechanisms may also be used to control oil furnaces, boilers, boiler zone valves , electric attic fans, electric furnaces, electric baseboard heaters, and household appliances such as ...
A Connected thermostat is one that can be controlled through an internet connection, but will not provide analytic information. In recent years Wi-Fi thermostats have risen in popularity, they combine the technology of thermometers and Wi-Fi. So now you can have a thermometer in your home that is displayed on your phone that uses Wi-Fi technology.
The rat's nest is a jumble of wires (lines) criss-crossing each other to their destination nodes. These wires are routed either manually or automatically by the use of electronics design automation (EDA) tools. The EDA tools arrange and rearrange the placement of components and find paths for tracks to connect various nodes.
Honeywell electronic thermostat in a store. Heating and cooling losses from a building (or any other container) become greater as the difference in temperature increases. A programmable thermostat allows reduction of these losses by allowing the temperature difference to be reduced at times when the reduced amount of heating or cooling would not be objectionable.
The switches are then connected to each other by a pair of wires called "travelers" (or "strappers" in the UK), and the lamp is connected to the common terminal of the second switch, as shown. Using the traveler system, there are four possible permutations of switch positions: two with the light on and two with the light off.
But maybe it had only two wires, or it had a thermocouple, but surely the thermometer was in one way blocked to keep from heating and it defintely couldn not have been a digital thermostat —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.4.65.17 (talk • contribs) 19:34, 22 September 2006

The program features include time schedules, set points, controllers, logic, timers, trend logs, and alarms. The unit controllers typically have analog and digital inputs that allow measurement of the variable (temperature, humidity, or pressure) and analog and digital outputs for control of the transport medium (hot/cold water and/or steam ...
