What are the differences between a hazardous location control station switch and another general purpose switch?
A hazardous location control station switch is used in places where there might be flammable gases or dust. It is built with extra protection to prevent sparks that could cause an explosion. On the other hand, a general-purpose switch is made for regular environments without such risks and doesn't have the same level of protection against sparks or explosions.
