Description
Overview:
A 3 Pole Double Throw (3PDT) toggle switch for dependable circuit control in machinery and control panels. This heavy-duty switch is rated at 15A, 240V AC and uses nine screw terminals to manage three separate circuits at the same time. It has an On‐On, two‐position latching action, allowing you to select between two circuit paths per pole. The compact, panel‐mount body features a robust metal toggle lever and a durable moulded housing designed to cope with workshop and site conditions. Ideal for construction and garden machinery, such as control boxes on compressors, generators, pressure washers, lawn tractors, and chipper/shredders. Suitable for users who need clear, positive switching with secure, serviceable screw connections in industrial, agricultural, or professional DIY environments.
Key Features:
- 3PDT configuration: switches three independent circuits between two positions
- Rated 15A at 240V AC for reliable mains‐level control
- 9 screw terminals for firm, serviceable wiring using ring or fork crimps
- On‐On latching action with positive toggle feel for clear status indication
- Sturdy metal toggle and tough moulded body for long service life
- Panel‐mount design for straightforward fitting in enclosures and control panels
- Suits control, signalling, and power routing tasks on small to medium machines
- Secure terminal screws minimise loosening from vibration
- Clear terminal layout makes installation and fault‐finding easier
- Versatile replacement for worn or failed multi‐pole switches in workshop equipment
Typical Applications:
Used in machine control panels, selector switches for tools and plant, routing power or signals between two sources or loads, isolating accessory circuits, and switching logic for relays or indicators. Common on generators, compressors, bench tools, garden machinery, and site equipment where a firm, panel‐mounted On‐On switch is required.
