You really want to keep yourself isolated from the machine, and the machine isolated from you for all sorts of reasons. I'm in the automation industry, and would NEVER slap a solid state device in parallel with an operator pushbutton, but I will put a NO contact set there. | |

Apr 14, 2015 at 17:01 | comment | added | Snesticle | Sadly I have no relays handy that would work and I'm in an area that makes getting supplies tough. For anyone coming here from the questions title, though, this answer will almost certainly be applicable. | |
