Help with 120v electronic switch

Postby hapinesiswin » Tue May 31, 2011 4:40 pm

I need a 120v volt switch that when it receives power shuts off power to another source. I have no idea what such a device is called so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time!

You can use a 120V relay and connect the load to the normally closed contacts of the relay.

Hello,

You can use 120v rocker switch, which is mainly used in instrument, home appliances and electronics.120v rocker switch receives power shuts off from other source.

Thanks a lot

How about a DPST - Double Pole, Single Throw switch? When you throw the switch, the other circuit is opened up. Sound Good?
