Wiring & getting started
- Cut the panel opening
Cut a rectangle that fits the body under the 15 x 10.5 mm bezel. Start slightly small and file until the switch clicks in and the clips hold it firmly.
- Connect the switched wire
Connect one side of the wire being switched to each lug by soldering it to the lug. The lugs are not polarised.
- Check the switch
Press I to close the contact and O to open it. Isolate power before checking or changing the wiring.
Note: Only AC ratings are marked on this switch. For 230 V mains loads stay within 3 A, switch the active conductor, use insulated connections and an enclosure, and have mains installation done by a suitably qualified person.
