A second lamp can be connected at A to light the end of a long corridor or as a pilot lamp to indicate the light in an outbuilding is left on.
This small device allowed the dimmer to be installed in a standard electrical wall box while saving energy. [2] [3] In 1966, Eugene Alessio patented a light bulb socket adapter for adjusting a light level on a single light bulb using a triac. To house this device, he decided on a 2-inch round device with one end capable of being screwed into a ...
A rotary switch is a switch operated by rotation. These are often chosen when more than 2 positions are needed, such as a three-speed fan or a CB radio with multiple frequencies of reception or "channels". A rotary switch consists of a spindle or "rotor" that has a contact arm or "spoke" which projects from its surface like a cam.
