This AC power switch circuit senses the presence of AC current in one outlet of a multi-outlet power strip and switches power to the remaining outlet(s). It utilizes a current transformer, single ...

The ACSN100-AE-F AC current switch has a fixed setpoint of 0.5 A and monitors current up to 100 A. The normally open solid-state switch output rated for 120 VAC/DC, 0.15 A and has a small size, making ...

Figure-1 shows the schematic diagram of the device. P1 is used to connect the 220V-AC input and the ON/OFF switch to the circuit. C1 is used to reduce the AC voltage. The value of the C1 also ...

When choosing a switch to use in an electrical design project, there is a perception that it is possible to use any switch, provided its current rating is greater than the maximum load in the circuit.
