The Introduction to Switches training course examines the most common switches used in industrial applications and describes their operating principles. The European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC) was set up in 1973. Presently it comprises 22 countries (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Slovakia. It is published in the PWI Journal with the kind permission and co-operation of the IRSE.
