Plastic On-Off Marine Toggle Switch with Aluminium Sign - 15A 12/24V, 12mm Shaft RWB1353
The supplied aluminium on/off sign provides a clear position reference beside this plastic toggle. Consider it where a basic labelled control is useful for an auxiliary circuit. Orient the sign to match the actual switch movement when fitting it, and add a circuit name where needed so other users know what it operates. Check the 12mm shaft stem and 8mm maximum dash thickness against the complete mounting surface.
Two-position plastic on/off toggle switch supplied with an aluminium on/off sign.

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.
