Switch wiring id driving me nuts
AngraMelo:
Thank you so much!!!!
Ian.M:
You could also use two switches, one four way single pole rotary for the range selection at the SW1-B position in your circuit, and the other a SPDT toggle switch for the Test/Discharge switch at postion SW1-A. Be careful of the voltage rating of the toggle switch - there aren't many that can safely handle 400V DC
TERRA Operative:
Those switches that Brumby pictured can often have their end stop adjusted.
ie. for a 2 pole switch, each pole is shown as having 6 positions. By removing and rotating the metal ring seen at the base of the threaded portion to the appropriate position, you can limit the switch to 5, 4, 3 or 2 positions etc.
AngraMelo:
Thank you guys for the help
I could use another separate DPDT switch but that means one more step during testing and as much as I wanted to use the rotary that I had (1pole 12 positions) it seems that Im going to order the correct 2 poles 5 positions.
I finally understand the schematic, thank you again for your help!
spec:
What a great thread- just help and information all the way. :-+
