Reed Switches
Reed switches are a special kind of electrical switch which is actuated by magnetism. The most common type features two thin, flexible, ferromagnetic metal wires or blades - the reeds - positioned slightly apart in a hermetically sealed glass bubble. These function as the reed switch contacts. It should also be noted that the change-over type has three reeds instead of two. You can find more information in our reed switches guide.
