  2. 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.

  3. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

    A circuit diagram (or: wiring diagram, electrical diagram, elementary diagram, electronic schematic) is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations.

  4. Safety relay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_relay

    Relays and contactors were used to control plant and machinery in the early days of control technology. In the event of a hazardous situation, the actuator was simply isolated from the energy supply. This type of protection system could be manipulated in the event of a malfunction, disabling the protective function.

  5. Wiring diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiring_diagram

    An automotive wiring diagram, showing useful information such as crimp connection locations and wire colors. These details may not be so easily found on a more schematic drawing. A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes, and the ...

  6. Motor control center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_control_center

    Motor control centers are usually used for low voltage three-phase alternating current motors from 208 V to 600 V. Medium-voltage motor control centers are made for large motors running at 2300 V to around 15000 V, using vacuum contactors for switching and with separate compartments for power switching and control.

  7. Electrical contact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_contact

    An electrical contact is an electrical circuit component found in electrical switches, relays, connectors and circuit breakers. [1] Each contact is a piece of electrically conductive material, typically metal .

  8. Solid-state relay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_relay

    Solid state relay with green LED Solid state contactor PCB mount solid-state DIL relay. A solid state relay (SSR) is an electronic switching device that switches on or off when an external voltage (AC or DC) is applied across its control terminals.

  9. Contact resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_resistance

    The slope of the linear function is related to the channel transconductance and can be used for estimation of the ”contact resistance-free” carrier mobility. The approximations used here (linear potential drop across the channel region, constant contact resistance, ...) lead sometimes to the channel dependent contact resistance.
