(On)-Off DPST Heavy Duty Toggle with Screw Terminals. This DPST switch is momentary: it is ON only while you hold it and springs back to OFF. Rated 10A @ 277V AC, 20A @ 125V AC, 21A @ 14V DC (double pole); motor load 1-1/2 HP @ 125-250V AC (double pole).

Use it for: horns, starters, jog or inch controls and test circuits that should only run while the handle is held.

How it is wired: DPST (double pole, single throw): two separate circuits switched on and off together. Connect with ring terminals or spade terminals under the screws. Mounting hole: 1/2" (0.500"). Always check that the rating covers your load, and fuse the circuit to protect the wire.
