Switches with Terminals

Switches with terminals are illuminated or non-illuminated rocker on-off switches that fit into a mounting hole in the appliance housing or panel sheet and are wired at the terminals on the back. They are used to switch the supply or a single function on and off in electric heaters, fans, power strips, small household appliances and machine panels. The category includes EMAS A series switches in 30x22 mm, 30x11 mm, 20x13 mm and 20 mm sizes, with black, white or gray housings, 1NO, 2NO and 1NO+1NO contacts, and rockers marked 0-I or with bulb, fan and snowflake symbols. Select the switch by the size that fits the mounting hole in the panel, number of contacts, current and voltage of the load, whether it is illuminated, and the marking on the rocker. On illuminated models, the operating voltage of the lamp inside the rocker must match the circuit voltage. Switches with terminals are not wall-type lighting switches fitted into a flush-mounted box; they are mounted in an appliance or panel housing.
