What is a Selector Switch?

Selector switches are mechanical devices designed to open or close electrical contacts. They are commonly used in start/stop machine applications or to switch between various electric circuits. During application, they are front panel mounted via a 22 mm cut-out and should be connected to a support base secured with screws. Once fully operational the selector switch heads open and close contacts, turn right, left, and centre with a positive feel without rotation of the operators.
