(main) switch Explanation: I wouldn't call this a circuit breaker -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 21 hrs (2010-05-21 06:43:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I would say line switch for the first, and main switch for the second. A circuit breaker is actually a switch that acts when there is a circuit fault, such as a short. Though it is not necessarily important, and I would not wish to undermine Earnest's reasoning, this was mine, in that you asked. |
