An oil switch functions as a protective device in electrical systems, primarily used for switching and controlling power circuits. It utilizes oil as an insulating and quenching medium to extinguish arcs that occur during the switching process, ensuring safe operations. The oil also helps in cooling and insulating the switch components, enhancing durability and reliability. These switches are commonly employed in high-voltage applications and substations.
