About Miniature Switches
A switch is a device which is designed to interrupt the current flow in a circuit, in other words, it can make or break an electrical circuit. Each electrical and electronics application uses at least one switch to perform ON and OFF operation of the device. There are various switch applications found in wide variety fields such as home, automobiles, industrial, aerospace, military and so on. In some applications, multi-way switching is employed (like building wiring), in such cases two or more switches are interconnected to control an electrical load from more than one location.
