Some common switches are shown on this information sheet. Basically switches bring contacts together in different ways but they do the same switching job. |

Typical Switch Symbols |
|
KEY SWITCH |
|
This switch is available in different forms. They provide limited security as a key is required to ‘switch’ them on and off. |
|
PUSH SWITCH | |
These can be ‘push to make’ (push the switch to allow the circuit to work) or ‘push to break’ (push the switch to turn off the circuit). |
|
ROCKER SWITCH |
|
This switch is common on many electrical devices. For example they are found on computer units for turning them on and off. |
