zero-gravity switch [′zir·ō ¦grav·əd·ē ‚swich]

(electricity)

A switch that closes as weightlessness or zero gravity is approached; in one version, a conductive sphere of mercury encompasses two contacts at zero gravity but flattens away from the upper contact under the influence of gravity. Also known as weightlessness switch.
