Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns �
� Why does this switch have 4 pins instead of 2? The 4-pin design (DPST) allows you to break both the Hot and Neutral wires simultaneously. This is a significant safety advantage over 2-pin switches, as it ensures no residual voltage remains in the device when switched off.
Is this switch illuminated? This specific model features a solid black rocker with white printed symbols and is non-illuminated. It is ideal for environments where a status light might be distracting or is not required for operation.
� Will this fit in a standard 30mm x 22mm cutout? No. This switch has a more square profile of approximately 22mm x 21.60mm. Always measure your existing panel cutout before purchase, as it is smaller than the standard "Full Size" rocker switches used in many large power tools.
