Sockets and Switches

A socket outlet allows electrical current to flow through electrical devices and appliances. Although rosettes vary in shape and size in different countries, their purpose is similar everywhere. One important difference that differentiates rosettes is the ampacity, that is, the amount of current it can carry. A switch is a device that can make or break an electrical circuit. There are different types of switches, including push buttons, rotary switches, and more. Normally, switches are used to control lights, fans, and other electrical devices.
