2. Multiway switching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_switching

   An intermediate switch can, however, be implemented by adding appropriate external wiring to an ordinary (six terminal) DPDT switch, or by using a separate DPDT relay. By connecting one or more 4-way (intermediate) switches in-line, with 3-way switches at either end, the load can be controlled from three or more locations.

3. Switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch

   A biased switch contains a mechanism that springs it into another position when released by an operator. The momentary push-button switch is a type of biased switch. The most common type is a "push-to-make" (or normally-open or NO) switch, which makes contact when the button is pressed and breaks when the button is released.

4. Automatic test switching - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_test_switching

   Figure 1D illustrates a double-pole, double throw (DPDT) switch. Contact form, or simply form, is the term relay manufacturers use to describe a relay's contact configuration. "Form A” refers to a single-pole, normally open switch. "Form B" indicates a single-pole, normally closed switch, and "Form C" indicates a single-pole, double-throw switch.

5. Push switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push_switch

   A push switch (button) is a momentary or non-latching switch which causes a temporary change in the state of an electrical circuit only while the switch is physically actuated. An automatic mechanism (i.e. a spring ) returns the switch to its default position immediately afterwards, restoring the initial circuit condition.

6. Light switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_switch

   In the U.S., the buttons were commonly black; the "on" button typically had a white mother-of-pearl (real or simulated) inlay to indicate its function. By convention, the switch was customarily installed with the "on" button on top. Push-button switch reproductions are available on the market today for vintage or authentic styling.

7. Relay - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay

   Circuit symbols of relays (C denotes the common terminal in SPDT and DPDT types.) Since relays are switches, the terminology applied to switches is also applied to relays; a relay switches one or more poles, each of whose contacts can be thrown by energizing the coil. Normally open (NO) contacts connect the circuit when the relay is activated ...
