Basic Functions of a Safety Switch
What is the purpose for using a safety switch in an industry? A safety switch is designed to prevent electrical hazards and injury to workers in the industry. Safety switches are located within the breaker panels. They are also used at “PowerPoint Sites” in industrial facilities, where the most important and essential electric equipment can be operated.
How does a safety switch work? It’s a pretty simple switch. The safety switch monitors electrical currents that flow within electrical devices. The switch will cut off electrical power if it detects that current has departed from its intended path. A circuit breakers can identify circuit overload. The safety switch doesn’t do this. It monitors instead the flow or path of the current.
Electricity can be transferred to nearby human bodies when an electrical system is faulty or malfunctioning. It can have very serious consequences. When the safety switch detects the current flow is now flowing into the person instead of the equipment it shuts the system down.
Short story: The electrical current in equipment should follow a predetermined path. The safety switch shuts down power instantly if the current starts to deviate from its defined or established path.
Safety switches are designed to offer protection to people
For any commercial, industrial or business facility, surge diverters and breakers are essential. These devices increase safety and efficiency for a business. The above devices are not sufficient. Why? Breakers and surge diversion are not designed for protection. Safety switches are important! It is therefore vital to use them in order to ensure safety at a manufacturing or business facility.
