In electric power systems and industrial automation, ANSI Device Numbers can be used to identify equipment and devices in a system such as relays, circuit breakers, or instruments. The device numbers are enumerated in ANSI / IEEE Standard C37.2 Standard for Electrical Power System Device Function Numbers, Acronyms, and Contact Designations .
A thermal switch (sometimes thermal reset or thermal cutout (TCO)) is a device which normally opens at a high temperature (often with a faint "plink" sound) and re-closes when the temperature drops. The thermal switch may be a bimetallic strip , often encased in a tubular glass bulb to protect it from dust or short circuit .

The reset vector for 6502 processor family is a 16-bit address stored at 0xFFFC and 0xFFFD. The reset vector for 6800 and 6809 processor families is a 16-bit address stored at 0xFFFE and 0xFFFF. No Reset Vector. For 8051 / 8080 / 8085 / Z80, reset starts code execution at address 0x0000.
Power On (IEC 60417-5007) and Power Off (IEC 60417-5008) symbols are used to indicate positions of the rocker switch Power button marked with Standby symbol (IEC 60417-5009) turns the device on or off without fully disconnecting power supply. A power symbol is a symbol indicating that a control activates or deactivates a particular device.

A small circuit breaker typically has a manual control lever to switch the circuit off or reset a tripped breaker, while a larger unit may use a solenoid to trip the mechanism, and an electric motor to restore energy to springs (which rapidly separate contacts when the breaker is tripped).
Breaker arm with contact points at the left. The pivot is on the right and the cam follower is in the middle of the breaker arm. A contact breaker (or "points") is a type of electrical switch, found in the ignition systems of spark-ignition internal combustion engines. The switch is automatically operated by a cam driven by the engine.
