1. Differences in appearance
Although these two types of switches seem to be very familiar, but there are still differences, half of the leakage protection switch is the same as the air switch, and the other half is not, it is equipped with a test jump button and a recovery button, which are not available in the air switch.
2. Functional differences
For air switches, it is mainly used to protect the safety of circuits and electrical appliances to avoid dangerous accidents due to short circuits during use. The leakage protection switch is used to protect the personal safety of the user, and to avoid the occurrence of electric shock accidents when the circuit leaks or trips.
3. The difference in installation location
The leakage protection switch will be larger than the air switch, which is generally installed in the 3p position, while the air switch is installed in the 1p or 2p position.
4. The way of action detection is different
The air switch is mainly tripping when the circuit is too heavy, which is used to protect the safety of electricity. The leakage protection switch is mainly used to detect the residual current, and is used to protect the algebraic sum between the neutral wire and the inner phase of the loop current, which can cut off the leakage protector very sensitively to avoid the phenomenon of leakage.
5. The reasons for tripping are different
The reasons for the tripping of these two types of switches are also different, for the air switch, it is when the current between the live wire and the neutral wire is too large, which will cause the tripping. The leakage protector will trip only after the human body contacts the live wire and forms a loop with the ground, so as to play a protective role.
The role of the air switch
Air switch, also known as air circuit breaker, its specific function is to protect the circuit, for example, when the circuit is short-circuited or the current load is too high, it will trip in time, and automatically cut off the power supply of the line, which can effectively protect our household appliances and prevent them from being burned.
The function of the work of the leakage protector
Its main purpose is to protect the leakage fault when using electricity, and the protection device should be installed separately during installation, and the specifications should be matched. At the same time, it is necessary to install the leakage protector and the power switch together, so as to have the protection effect of short circuit, overload, leakage and so on. After installation, the size of the electrical box is effectively reduced, and the management is also more convenient.

Tianyi switch - how to select the switch?
1. Use less plastic switches
The switch is composed of a panel, a current carrier, a nozzle and a base, etc., and a good switch is mostly made of stainless steel inlay, which is safe and anti-electric shock. On the contrary, most of the inferior switches are made of plastic, although they are insulated, they are prone to leakage and flammability, and potential safety hazards will occur.

Tianyi switch - the difference between high-voltage load switch and high-voltage circuit breaker
1. The high-voltage load switch can be used as a load switch, which has the effect of self-extinguishing arc, but its breaking volume is very small and very limited.
2. The high-voltage isolation switch generally cannot be used as a load switch. There is no arc extinguishing cover in the structure, and there are also disconnectors that can switch loads on and off, but the structure is different from load switches ...
