Electrical Power Switching Group

The Electrical Power Switching Group is a subset of the supply class Electrical Control Equipment, which falls under the supply group Electric Wire, Power, and Distribution Equipment.

This group includes various devices and components used for controlling and switching electrical power. Some examples of electrical power switching equipment are:

1. Circuit Breakers: These devices are designed to protect electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits by automatically interrupting the flow of electricity.

2. Switchgear: Switchgear is a combination of electrical disconnect switches, fuses, or circuit breakers used to control, protect, and isolate electrical equipment.

3. Contactors: Contactors are electromechanical devices used to control the flow of electrical power in motors and other high-power applications.

4. Relays: Relays are electrically operated switches that use an electromagnet to control the flow of electrical current in a circuit.

5. Disconnect Switches: These switches are used to isolate electrical equipment from the power source for maintenance or safety purposes.

6. Transfer Switches: Transfer switches are used to switch between different power sources, such as switching from the main power grid to a backup generator during a power outage.

These are just a few examples of the electrical power switching equipment that falls under the Electrical Power Switching Group.
