Switches What this product does Provides manual control of electrical circuits by opening and closing the conductive path. Available in a range of configurations to match different control needs (see specific model listings for exact type). Key benefits — why you need it Precise control: lets you turn power on or off, or select between circuit paths, making operation straightforward and predictable. Safety and isolation: enables safe disconnection of power for maintenance or to prevent unwanted operation. Flexibility: multiple configurations and mounting options allow use across a variety of applications. Dependable operation: designed to perform the basic switching function reliably over repeated cycles (performance ratings vary by model). What makes it stand out Purposebuilt for switching tasks rather than generalpurpose components; intended to provide clear, repeatable control. Offered in multiple styles and formats so you can choose the most appropriate type for your installation or equipment. Important attributes (modeldependent) Function: on/off switching or multiposition switching; exact function depends on the selected model. Compatibility: intended for use with standard electrical and electronic systems; verify voltage, current and terminal types listed for each model before installation. Size and mounting: available in different form factors and mounting options — check model specifications for dimensions and panel cutout requirements. Materials and construction: contact and housing materials vary by model; consult the product specification for details and environmental ratings. Performance ratings: electrical ratings (voltage, current, endurance cycles) are modelspecific; always confirm ratings match your application. Practical use scenarios Building lighting control: or install switches to control room or corridor lighting, allowing safe on/off control and simple integration with standard wiring. Equipment control panels: provide operator control for machines or test rigs where a reliable manual switch is required for power or mode selection. Prototyping and electronics enclosures: use a switch to enable or disable subsystems during development, troubleshooting or intermittent operation. Installation and selection tips Match the switch's electrical rating and terminal style to your circuit to ensure safety and longevity. Confirm physical dimensions and mounting requirements for a proper fit in panels or enclosures. Review environmental and durability ratings (where provided) if the switch will be exposed to moisture, dust, or frequent cycles. Note Specifics such as exact switch type, ratings, materials and dimensions vary by model. Refer to the individual product specification sheet for the details needed to select the correct switch for your application.
