In the accompanying figure, the jog circuit uses three momentary contact pushbutton switches, and is considered to be safer than other jog circuits that use only momentary contact switches.

Momentary Contact

Momentary contact describes a switch mechanism that establishes a connection only when actuated and breaks the connection once the actuator is released, ensuring brief electrical contact.

Jog Circuit

A control circuit designed to momentarily energize a motor or device to adjust its position without engaging full operation.

Final Answer :
True
Explanation :
The inclusion of multiple momentary contact pushbutton switches in a jog circuit can enhance safety by requiring a more deliberate action (such as pressing multiple buttons simultaneously or in sequence) to initiate the jog function, reducing the risk of accidental activation.
