High-Current Power Management: Heavy Duty 4 Pin Illuminated Rocker Switch
Engineered for high-demand electrical environments, the Heavy Duty 4-Pin Illuminated Rocker Switch provides robust performance for industrial and commercial equipment. Rated for a massive 30A at 250V AC, these switches are built to handle high-wattage loads that standard toggles cannot support.
Available with Red or Yellow illuminated actuators, these switches feature a semi-transparent rocker that glows when the circuit is active, providing an essential safety indicator. The DPST (Double Pole Single Throw) configuration ensures full circuit isolation by switching both legs of the power line simultaneously.
Key Performance Features:
-
Superior Load Capacity: Rated for 30A 250V AC (or 35A 125V AC), making it ideal for heaters, motors, and large power tools.
-
Integrated Status Lighting: Internal lamp provides clear visual feedback in Red or Yellow when the switch is in the "I" (ON) position.
-
Full Safety Isolation: 4-pin design allows for simultaneous switching of Hot and Neutral lines for maximum electrical safety.
-
Heavy Duty Solder/Quick-Connect Tabs: Features four extra-wide silver-tone terminals designed for low resistance and high-current stability.
-
Snap-In Rectangular Design: Flexible side tabs allow for rapid, tool-less installation into standard rectangular panel cutouts.

Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns þ
-
Can I use this for a lower current device?
-
Absolutely. While rated for up to 30A, this switch works perfectly fine for lower current applications while providing a massive safety overhead.
-
-
Do I need to wire the light separately?
-
No, the internal lamp is pre-wired to the internal contacts; it will light up automatically once you connect your power and load correctly.
-
-
Is the plastic housing durable enough for heat?
-
Yes, the KCD4 body is made from high-temperature resistant plastic specifically designed for high-current applications that may generate heat.
