2. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

   A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through a conductor is not equal and opposite in both directions, therefore indicating leakage current to ground or current flowing to another powered conductor.

3. Circuit breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker

   In the US, where split-phase supplies are common, in a branch circuit with more than one live conductor, each live conductor must be protected by a breaker pole. To ensure that all live conductors are interrupted when any pole trips, a common-trip set of breakers must be used. These may either contain two or three tripping mechanisms within one ...

4. Double switching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_switching

   A double-switched relay cannot close inadvertently with the application of the same current. At least two separate faults would be required to allow this relay to close inadvertently. Double switching , double cutting , or double breaking is the practice of using a multipole switch to close or open both the positive and negative sides of a DC ...

   Single pole changeover or single pole, centre off or single pole, triple throw Similar to SPDT. Some suppliers use SPCO/SPTT for switches with a stable off position in the centre and SPDT for those without. Serial switch or two-circuit switch [citation needed] DPST (2P1T) Double pole, single throw: Double pole: Double pole

6. Multiway switching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_switching

   A "4-way" (intermediate) switch is a purpose built double pole, double throw (DPDT) switch, internally wired in manufacture to reverse the connections between the input and output and having only four external terminals. This switch has two pairs of "traveler" terminals that it connects either straight through, or crossed over (transposed, or ...
