  2. Relay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay

    A relay allows circuits to be switched by electrical equipment: for example, a timer circuit with a relay could switch power at a preset time. For many years relays were the standard method of controlling industrial electronic systems. A number of relays could be used together to carry out complex functions (relay logic). The principle of relay ...

  3. HVAC control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVAC_control_system

    HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) equipment needs a control system to regulate the operation of a heating and/or air conditioning system. [1] Usually a sensing device is used to compare the actual state (e.g. temperature) with a target state. Then the control system draws a conclusion what action has to be taken (e.g. start the ...

  4. Zero-crossing control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-crossing_control

    Zero-crossing control (or burst-fire control) is an approach for electrical control circuits that starts operation with the AC load voltage at close to 0 volts in the AC cycle. [1] This is in relation to solid-state relays, such as TRIACs and silicon controlled rectifiers. [1]

  5. Mercury switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_switch

    This is what older style thermostats used to turn a heater or air conditioner on or off. The mercury displacement switch uses a 'plunger' that dips into a pool of mercury, raising the level in the container to contact at least one electrode. This design is used in relays in industrial applications that need to switch high current loads frequently.

  6. Contactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contactor

    AC contactor for pump application. A contactor is an electrically controlled switch used for switching an electrical power circuit. [1] A contactor is typically controlled by a circuit which has a much lower power level than the switched circuit, such as a 24-volt coil electromagnet controlling a 230-volt motor switch.

  7. Electrical contact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_contact

    When the contacts touch, the switch is closed; when the contacts are separated, the switch is open. The gap must be an insulating medium, such as air, vacuum, oil, SF 6. Contacts may be operated by humans in push-buttons and switches, by mechanical pressure in sensors or machine cams, and electromechanically in relays.
