WHY DIODE IS CONNECTING ACROSS SWITCHES..

Answer / manoj dubey

generally diode is used across the DC contactor coil or
across switch in reverse biased mode. when DC contactor is
deenergised it contains some energy in form of residual
magnetic flux and creates sufficient spark during breaking
the supply. this spark detriorate the switch contact and
switch will get damaged very soon.
