Professional 4-Pin Illuminated Rocker Switch Red/Black Heavy-Duty DPST Power Control
This 4-Pin Rocker Switch is a high-reliability Double Pole Single Throw (DPST) component designed for heavy-duty power management in industrial, automotive, and household electronic applications. Featuring a distinct red illuminated actuator and a rugged black housing, this switch provides clear visual feedback and a tactile response for critical on/off operations.
Key Product Features
-
Double Pole Single Throw (DPST) Logic: Equipped with 4 independent pins to allow for the simultaneous switching of both the live and neutral lines, ensuring maximum safety and complete circuit isolation.
-
High-Visibility Illuminated Red Actuator: The translucent red rocker features a standard "I/O" (On/Off) imprint and is designed to light up when in the "On" position, providing immediate status verification in low-light environments.
-
Industrial Snap-In Mounting: Designed for seamless integration into panels, the housing features flexible side-retaining clips that lock the switch securely into a 20.72mm x 13mm cutout without the need for additional hardware.
-
Heavy-Duty Spade Terminals: Features four robust silver-toned male spade terminals, compatible with standard quick-connect crimp connectors or direct soldering for a permanent, vibration-resistant electrical path.
-
Durable Flame-Retardant Construction: Built with high-impact thermoplastic materials to withstand repeated mechanical cycling and provide reliable performance in demanding temperature environments.
-
Compact Miniature Footprint: Despite its heavy-duty rating, the streamlined design allows for high-density placement on control boards and equipment dashboards.

Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns �
� Why does this switch have 4 pins instead of 2? The 4-pin design allows the switch to function as a Double Pole device. This means it can break both sides of a circuit (Live and Neutral) simultaneously for enhanced safety, or be used to control two separate circuits with a single flick.
How do I wire the illumination feature? For the internal lamp to light up, power must be supplied to the specific pins designated for the light circuit. Typically, two pins handle the main power load, while the other two complete the circuit for the internal neon or LED indicator.
� Will this fit in a standard rectangular panel cutout? Yes. This switch is designed for a standard 20.72mm x 13mm rectangular opening. The snap-in "wings" on the side of the black housing will compress during insertion and spring out to hold the switch tight against the panel.
