operator to control a circuit (for example, a light switch or a keyboard button), may
be operated by a moving object such as a door-operated switch, or may be
operated by some sensing element for pressure, temperature or flow. A relay is a
switch that is operated by electricity. Switches are made to handle a wide range of
voltages and currents; very large switches may be used to isolate high-voltage
circuits in electrical substations.
Inductor is an electrical component that stores energy in magnetic field.
The inductor is made of a coil of conducting wire.
In an electrical circuit schematics, the inductor marked with the letter L.
The inductance is measured in units of Henry [L].
Inductor reduce current in AC circuits and short circuit in DC circuits.
