Working Principle

A rotary switch works by interrupting an electrical circuit. When the switch is turned, it interrupts the current by opening contact points. This allows the user to switch to another circuit. The 71MBS30-04C06N rotary switch works in a similar way.

When the switch is turned, the contacts are opened and closed by internal cams. This is done by a set of contact fingers which move against the cams. As the cams change their position, the contact is interrupted and another circuit is selected. The 71MBS30-04C06N comes with a selector knob which helps the user turn the switch to the desired position.

Conclusion

The 71MBS30-04C06N is a type of rotary switch which is used for a variety of applications. It is designed for low power AC or DC service and is particularly well-suited for use in automobiles, domestic appliances, industrial equipment and emergency lighting. The working principle of the switch is based on the opening and closing of contact points, which is accomplished by a set of contact fingers which move against internal cams.
