🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between mechanical interlock and electrical interlock symbols in ladder diagrams • How a maintaining (latching) push button is shown versus a momentary push button • Meaning of dashed or broken lines attached to a contact symbol in control schematics

💭 Think About

• Look closely at symbol 6: is the contact drawn as normally open or normally closed when the device is at rest? • What does the dashed/angled line connected to the contact indicate about how it is operated or restrained? • Which of the answer choices specifically mentions a limit switch versus a push button, and does the symbol look like a limit switch actuator or just a contact with an interlock?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify whether the drawn contact in figure 6 is open or closed in its normal (de‑energized) position • Check if the added line or linkage suggests a mechanical linkage/interlock rather than an electrically controlled coil • Confirm that a maintaining type push button would normally be represented by its actual operator symbol (button) rather than only a contact with an interlock indicator
