An architecture for switching on and off power, which applies to a power supply has a power factor regulation unit, a primary power system, and a regular power system. The regular power system provides the primary power system with a regular power to start the primary power system. The regular power system includes: a voltage detection unit generating a driving signal signifying and a regular power output unit receiving the driving signal and outputting the regular power. The voltage detection unit connects with a logic signal switch. The logic signal switch controls the voltage detection unit to determine whether the driving signal is normally output to the regular power output unit or coercively interrupted. Thereby, the power supply can be coercively switched off. As the driving signal has a smaller current, the liability of electric shock is decreased, and the volume and cost of the logic signal switch is reduced.
