What is a universal changeover switch?

A universal changeover switch is a multifunctional electrical control device widely used in circuit switching, control and monitoring. It can switch between multiple circuits through manual or automatic operation and is suitable for complex electrical control systems. The core function of the universal changeover switch is to connect or disconnect the circuit by opening and closing the contacts. Its multi-gear design allows it to adapt to different operating requirements, such as motor forward and reverse control, power switching, device mode selection, etc.

The main structure of the universal changeover switch includes a handle, contacts, a shaft, a positioning mechanism, a housing and wiring terminals. The handle is used for manual operation, the contacts are responsible for the connection and disconnection of the circuit, the shaft and the positioning mechanism ensure that the switch can be stably fixed in a specific position, and the housing plays a role of protection and insulation. The material of the contacts is usually copper or silver to improve conductivity and durability.

The universal transfer switch has the characteristics of high reliability, flexible operation and wide application range. It is widely used in industrial control, power systems, automation equipment and household appliances. For example, in industrial equipment, it can be used to start, stop and control the direction of the motor; in the power system, it can be used for power switching of the distribution cabinet; in household appliances, it can be used for mode selection or function switching.

In short, the universal changeover switch is a powerful and widely used electrical device that can meet a variety of circuit control needs and is an indispensable and important part of the modern electrical system.
