Tapping Key One way
Technical Specifications:
- Type: Momentary contact switch
- Material: High-quality insulating base (e.g., bakelite or plastic) with brass or copper contacts
- Operation: Activated by pressing the key to close the circuit; released to break the connection
- Current Rating: Typically suitable for low-voltage applications (e.g., up to 10A at 250V)
- Mounting: Tabletop or panel-mounted for stable operation
Description:
A Tapping Key is a manually operated electrical switch designed for momentary contact in circuit control applications. It consists of a robust base, a spring-loaded lever, and metal contact points that allow precise control over electrical signal transmission. Tapping keys are commonly used in telegraphy, laboratory experiments, and educational setups to regulate current flow in a circuit.
- Mounting: Tabletop or panel-mounted for stable operation
Applications:
- Used in telegraph communication for Morse code transmission
- Applied in educational physics and electrical experiments to control current flow
- Utilized in testing and circuit control setups in laboratories
- Commonly employed in amateur radio operations for signal transmission
