APPLICATION. Why can not turn on an electrical device to Shabbat?
RESPONSE. Regarding the use of electrical appliances and lighting, there are several issues to consider.
electricity. We mention only that (i) if the electricity is generated at the conclusion of Shabbat through prohibited activities (" ma'asè Shabbat ) its use is not allowed to Shabbat and (ii) that the discourse in Israel complicated by the fact that electricity is generated through the work of non-observant Jews (Chazon Ish 38, 4). In practice there are a number of reasons why, although some abstained, allowing many poskim use of electricity.
Using electrical appliances. First, it should be clear that it is permissible to use electrical appliances that have been turned on before Shabbat or are activated by a timer connected before Shabbat and manually edited during Shabbat (Rambam, Shabbat Hilchot 3, 1). Examples are the light and air conditioning. Obviously this applies only to permitted uses. For example, although an electric cooker was turned on before Shabbat or during Shabbat with a timer is not allowed cucinarvici.
Turn on (and off) electrical appliances. electrical devices normally are activated by pressing a button that brings together two pieces of metal which closes the circuit and allow the passage of electrical current that powers the unit. According to the Chazon Ish
(50, 9) when approaching the two pieces of metal and pass the current junction of two elements and you offend in this way melakhah of bone ("build"). The ignition of an electrical appliance is thus a transgression Deora. Note that if you turn off the device opens the circuit and takes place in this way melakhah of Board ("destroy"). Rav Moshe Feinstein
Agree zzl ( Moshe Igrot 4, 84), Rav Yosef Shalom Eliashiv shlit'a (quoted in Orchot Shabat chapter 26, footnote 1) and Ha-Rav Shmuel Levy shlit'a Wosner (Shevet Halevy 8, 47 and 9, 163 ). Even Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach zzl which was initially agreed to review different in practice ( Minchat Shlomo 1, 11).
Moreover, it remains the Chazon Ish, pressing the button switches the electrical current, giving "life" (" Molid ") unit. It is a transgression derabbanan (see Shu't Bet Yitzchak - Yore Dea 2, 31) that adds to the previous year.
Lamps and stoves. In addition to the above, when you turn on a light bulb or an electric stove is red hot the metal creates light and heat. Such activity is prohibited because it constitutes a breach of Deora melakhah of av'arà ("light" a fire). (See Rambam and Maghid Mishna, Shabbat Hilchot 12, 1 and Rav Chaim Ozer Grodzinski introduction of a zzl Meor 'Esh of Rabbi Shlomo Zalman Auerbach zzl).
