DEFINITION

Classification: 335/16

(under subclass 15) Subject matter wherein the significant biasing, holding or pressure control means consists of either a magnet or other device which depends for its operation on the reaction between current in one part of an electric circuit and the current in another part, such as a current loop for creating electrodynamic forces tending to separate or close the relatively movable contacts.
