Types of electrical switch locks and applicable electrical equipment
In modern industrial production and daily life, the application of electricity has been everywhere, and in order to ensure the safety of electricity use, improve operating efficiency and maintenance convenience, electrical switch locks will be used in various electrical systems. This paper will introduce the types of electrical switch locks and their applications in detail.
I. Overview
Electrical switch lock is a device used to control the on-off state of the circuit. Usually, it is installed in various electrical equipment or distribution boxes, and the power supply is cut off by mechanical means. According to the function, it can be divided into manual switch lock (such as knife switch), electric switch lock (such as relay) and combined switch lock. According to the different working principles, there are many classification methods such as contactor type and electromagnetic type.
Second, the main types and uses
1. Knife-type switch lock: suitable for small current occasions, such as home lighting lines, small motor startup, etc. Its structure is simple and easy to operate, and its price is low, but it cannot be directly converted with load.
2. Relay switch lock: mainly used in the field of signal transmission and remote control. When an external electric signal is applied, it can respond quickly and complete the specified action, which has the advantages of small size, portability and high reliability.
3. Contactor switch lock: It is widely used in the automatic control system of factory production line, especially in the case of frequent start and stop of high-power motors. It has high compressive strength, overload protection performance and long service life.
4. air switch/molded case circuit breaker: As a comprehensive product with two functions of isolation and switching, it can not only be used to connect or disconnect the load current under normal conditions, but also automatically cut off the short circuit or overcurrent fault in case of failure to prevent the damage from expanding. It is more common in places such as low-voltage cabinets in substations and general distribution rooms in residential quarters.
Third, the basis of choice
How to correctly select the appropriate type of electrical switch lock for different application scenarios? First of all, specific requirements should be made clear, such as the expected maximum current value, the number of operations to be performed, and so on; Secondly, we should consider the influence of environmental factors, such as whether there are corrosive gases or the temperature changes greatly, and so on. Finally, the final decision can be made in combination with budget constraints.
In short, with the continuous improvement of science and technology level and the increasing market demand, more new intelligent electrical switch lock solutions with high efficiency and low energy consumption will appear in the future to meet the diversified requirements of customers. At the same time, it is recommended that you fully understand the relevant knowledge and consult professionals before making a decision.
