Understanding Self-Locking, Interlocking, and Mutual Locking in Electrical Control Systems

1. Self-Locking 1.1 Definition Self-locking refers to a control mechanism where a circuit element (e.g., a button or relay) maintains its state after activation, even when the initial trigger is released. 1.2 Working Principle Self-locking is typically achieved by connecting a normally open auxiliary contact of a relay in parallel with the start button. When
