NO and NC contacts do not exist for a SPST switch. NO and NC contacts only exist on momentary switches. Either I am contracting what you posted, or am clarifying confusion for others.

you are clarifying for others. sometimes i get ahead of myself and forget to explain or assume that they know what i'm talking about. it's a fault i have. ty. the contact symbol that they used to designate a switch is in fact the symbol used to designate a relay contact. those can be either N.O. or N.C. for clarification there are relay contacts, PLC contacts (programmable logic controllers) as well as many other contacts, each one drawn a unique way to identify said contact. then it is given an "address."

You may want to consider that job with greater caution. It sounds, in some ways, like you would be hired to be the enemy of a problem that you cannot solve.

you make a very good point. however, i can fix this. i have almost 20 years experience. i'm confident. enemy? maybe. end result? it will work. like i said, i have looked over the schematics and wiring diagrams. all they need are clarification. point well taken tw.

Also every terminal connection typically has a number or letter to uniquely identify each connection.

i agree and that is one of the problems that is occurring with the present designers. they are not specifying addresses or contact numbers. they're lazy and want the field contractor to either figure out what they don't know or they just don't care. time to go guys. let the "A" team in. i know what i'm doin'.
