Lülituskontaktid

Lülituskontaktid refer to the electrical contacts within a switch that make or break an electrical circuit. These contacts are a critical component in any electrical switching device, enabling the control of power flow to various appliances and systems. When a switch is operated, a movable contact is brought into or separated from a stationary contact, thereby completing or interrupting the electrical path.

The design and material of lülituskontaktid are crucial for their reliable operation and longevity. They are typically made from conductive materials such as copper alloys, silver, or alloys containing precious metals to ensure low resistance and good conductivity. The surface finish and the force with which the contacts meet also play a significant role in preventing arcing and minimizing wear. Different types of switches employ various configurations of lülituskontaktid, including single-pole, double-pole, normally open (NO), and normally closed (NC) arrangements, each suited for specific control functions. Regular maintenance and inspection of these contacts can prevent malfunctions and ensure the safe and efficient operation of electrical equipment.
