Types of Electrical Switches
A switch is an electromechanical device used to control the flow of electricity in a circuit. When the switch is ‘OFF’ or in the ‘open’ position, there is no flow of electricity. When the switch is ‘ON’ or in the ‘closed’ position, electricity flows. An electric switch typically includes an actuator, a moving contact, terminals, and a case or housing. TE electrical switches are cost-effective, reliable, high-performance solutions designed to withstand extreme shock, vibration, temperature, and altitude. Our portfolio includes many types of electrical switches and switch accessories, including knobs, caps, boot seals, and hardware. Our electrical switches are used in industrial machinery, robotics and cobots, home appliances, control panels, motion control systems, and building, lighting, and HVAC systems. Shop our switches by brand: ALCOSWITCH switches, AMP switches, and KISSLING switches.

Types of Toggle Switches
Maintained and momentary toggle switches A toggle switch is a type of electrical switch that is actuated by moving a lever back and forth to open or close an electrical circuit. There are two basic types: maintained contact and momentary toggle switches. A maintained switch changes its position when actuated and will remain in that position until actuated again, such as an ON/OFF function. A momentary toggle switch is actuated only when someone is operating the switch. We design and manufacture a wide range of toggle switches with several mounting options. Our broad portfolio includes toggle switches with different actuator styles and amperage ranging from 3 to 20 amps, as well as different load-carrying capabilities and locking combinations. Further, we offer switches with and without guards to prevent accidental switching as well as individual switches and complete switch assemblies with additional sealed housings. Because of its ease of operation, the toggle switch is used in various applications, including military/aerospace, commercial, plant and industrial engineering, instrumentation, and medical equipment.

Button Switches
Momentary switches: Change current with a pushbutton switch A push button switch causes a temporary change in an electrical circuit only while the switch is physically pushed. A spring returns the switch to its original position immediately afterwards. A push button is typically made of plastic or metal and may be flat-surfaced or contoured to the finger or hand. Also known as momentary switches, they are designed and manufactured to the highest quality standards. We offer push button switch types in wide ranges from standard to IP-rated. Our portfolio includes Alcoswitch and KISSLING switches. Common applications include emergency stop (e-stop) and alarm switches, calculator buttons, doorbells, and refrigerator light switches.
