3.7 Liquid level operating control

A level sensitive control which, when the equipment is operating normally, limits the liquid level to be higher than or lower than a certain specified level, OR limits the liquid level between a certain higher level and lower level.

An electric control which, to start single-phase motors for household appliances and similar use, is integrated with electrical appliances OR incorporated into electrical appliances; is used in the motor circuit, to control the connections, between the main winding and the auxiliary starting winding.

3.16 Protector

Components, that prevent equipment or persons from being harmed, by abnormal temperature, current, or voltage.

3.17 Overcurrent protector

A protector, which is connected in series with the protection object, to prevent its overcurrent.
