Various special electronic components

Got info on spring loaded switches or electro magnetic switches ? Pls let us know all about it here!

Their idea is actually very clever - basically most common relays have a top metal lid that, when the relay connects, is pulled down with the coil thingy to make contact. Now, on the particular model of relay they use, the lid is used as a "trigger" - the circuit breaker has a notch that is "loaded" against the relay "lid" and keeps the breaker down. When the relay connects, the lid pulls down and the notch slips free, and a spring pops the circuit breaker out. Check the above link for an illustration that is much better than this chapter :) -- Tuomas
