Abstract
Abstract A remote control switch circuit for switching on and off an associated load with a remote control relay operated by one of a plurality of remote control switches which is actuated independently of others. The circuit comprises a series circuit of a remote load section including the remote control relay connected to the load and normally closed and normally opened contacts connected in series through a pair of reversely connected diodes to the relay and a first operating switch section including the remote control switch for initiating and interrupting current fed to a polar relay and normally closed and normally opened contacts connected in series through a pair of reversly connected diodes to the switch, and an AC source providing source voltage to said series circuit. Other operating switch section or sections will be connected to said first section in parallel relation thereto.
