Sketch the necessary wiring to make this float-type level switch control a pump and a lamp in the following manner:

  • High liquid level: pump on and lamp off
  • Low liquid level: pump off and lamp on

float-type level switch

Hint: remember that the “normal” status of a switch is defined as the status of minimum stimulus: when the switch is exposed to the lowest possible degree of process stimulation (in this particular case, to the lowest possible level).

Answer : 

This is just one possible solution:
