An example of a control switch is an on/off switch used to turn on and off a light. Control switches are typically used in a variety of applications, including industrial machinery, consumer electronics and home automation systems. They provide a simple and efficient way to switch electrical circuitry on and off, enabling users to control the power flow in a variety of different ways.
