The supplied 150mm wire leads can be useful when arranging connections behind a compact dashboard. Plan where those leads will join the installation wiring so each connection remains supported and accessible. The chrome-plated brass toggle includes a waterproof rubber boot with a brass insert. Check that the boot allows the full on/off movement after fitting. The 12mm shaft stem and 8mm maximum dash thickness should be compared with the complete mounting stack.

Two-position on/off chrome-plated brass switch with wire leads and a waterproof rubber boot with brass insert.

  • Lead length: 150mm
  • Rating: 15A
  • Voltage: 12V or 24V
  • Maximum dash thickness: 8mm
  • Shaft stem diameter: 12mm

For a replacement, compare the original switch's operating action, electrical rating and mounting arrangement before choosing the new part. A similar appearance alone does not establish that the wiring arrangement matches. For a new installation, identify the equipment being controlled and check its normal current, starting demand where relevant, and required switching function. Use a suitably qualified marine electrical installer if the circuit requirements are uncertain.

Plan the mounting position around everyday operation. The control should be easy to reach and identify, with enough space around it for deliberate use. Check behind the dashboard for cables, structure and other instruments before drilling. Allow room for terminals and cable bends, and support the wiring so its weight and movement do not pull on the switch connections.

Isolate the relevant supply before installation and label existing wires before disconnecting them. Use cable and circuit protection selected for the complete installation, then secure and protect all connections appropriately. Once fitted, test the intended function under controlled conditions and make sure the control is clearly identified for other people aboard.

For ongoing care, include the control in routine electrical inspections. Check for looseness, damaged insulation or a change in operating feel, and investigate any unreliable function before continued use. Keep the surrounding area clear so the switch can be operated deliberately and its label remains visible.
