This feature is a valuableone as it gives smooth and economical prevents abuse to equipment due to throwing on ofpower in excess of the predetermined rate. The limit switch consists of a small switchactuated by a solenoid through the coil of which cur-rent of one pair of motors passes. When this currentexceeds a predetermined limit for which the switchis adjusted, its armature is attracted against gravity,opening the switch which is connected in t
