Rocker Switches

Rocker switches are a type of electrical switch that operates using a rocking mechanism. This type of switch is commonly used for illumination, motor control, security, and power supply applications. The most common type of rocker switch is the B123J60ZQ24P, which is used for controlling low voltage DC (direct current) applications. This type of switch is well-suited for applications such as car stereos, battery chargers, medical devices, and power supplies.

A rocker switch operates in two directions: it can be switched on or off, manually or by an automated mechanism. The switch is a basic switching device which can be controlled by hand and is usually used to open and close an electrical circuit or to control the flow of power in various electronic circuits. The rocker switch is typically connected to two terminals, the fixed terminal and the movable arm, and is operated by moving the rocker arm up or down, which closes or opens the switch contact.

The B123J60ZQ24P is an SPDT (single pole double throw) switch with a rated voltage of 24 volts and a rated current of 6 amps. This kind of switch allows for an open circuit in both the on and off positions, so that it can be used for controlling both low-voltage DC applications, as well as indicator lamps. When the switch is in the ‘on’ position, the circuit between the two terminals is closed, allowing current to flow. When the switch is in the ‘off’ position, the circuit between them remains open, preventing current from flowing.

The B123J60ZQ24P is designed to be a simple and inexpensive solution for controlling low-voltage DC applications. It features a snap-action mechanism which provides a short, but audible ‘click’ when the switch is moved from off to on or from on to off. This contributes to the safety of the circuit, as the audible click helps to ensure that the switch is operating correctly. Additionally, the switch also has an action indicator, so that the user can determine when it is in the ‘on’ or ‘off’ position.

The B123J60ZQ24P is a robust and reliable switch which is suitable for a wide variety of applications. It is often used in automotive and electronic circuits, medical devices, and power supplies. The switch is a low-cost, versatile solution that can be used in multiple applications and environments. For example, it is a popular choice for powering LED lights, as it is able to provide a bright and long-lasting light that is energy-efficient. It is also often used in security systems to trigger alarms and control access.
