Define Normal Status for each of the Process Switch
A pressure switch will be in its “normal” state when there is minimum pressure applied. A level switch will be in its “normal” state when there is no level detected by the switch.

Understanding Normal Positions and Contact Sequences in Process
In process automation, a switch''s “normal” position is the state it occupies when no external force is applied – the position it would be in when mounted on a shelf, ready for operation.

4.3: Contact “Normal” State and Make/Break Sequence
For process switches, the normal position, or state, is that which the switch is in when there is no process influence on it. An easy way to figure out the normal condition of a process switch is to

Understanding the “Normal” Status of a Process Switch
A switch will be in its “normal” (resting) state when the stimulus value is less than the threshold value. Conversely, a switch will be in its “actuated” state when the stimulus value exceeds the threshold value.
