G'day,
I was wondering if there are any advantages / disadvantages of placing a switch in a circuit on the positive or negative side of the load? In my mind having the switch on the positive side makes sense since there would be no voltage source as seen by the load and thus no easy way to accidentally power it, but I have seen some circuits where switches are used specifically on the negative side..
So yeah, am I just imagining things here or is there no difference? Thanks!
