Rocker Switches

A rocker switch is an electrical switch that is activated by a spring-loaded rocking lever, which is either visible or hidden. The lever enables the switch to turn on and off by pressing a button or a rocker on its surface. The M2T18TXG13/328 rocker switch is one such example which is suitable for a variety of applications.

M2T18TXG13/328 Application Field

This rocker switch is typically used in LED lighting and other home or office appliances. It is a reliable replacement switch and is commonly used to control the output of LED strips, PC fans, pumps, and other automation applications. M2T18TXG13/328 is a single toggle double pole double throw type AC rated switch with a 13A/250VAC inrush capacity and a 16A/125VAC outrush rating. It also has a high capacity surge current of 10A/250VAC.

Working Principle

The mechanism of a rocker switch is fairly simple. When the switch is press down, the electrical contacts are open and the current flow is interrupted. When the switch is released, the spring-loaded lever rocks back to its original position, allowing the electrical contacts to come into contact again, thereby creating a closed circuit. When the rocker switch is off, the electrical contacts are open and the current does not flow.

The mechanism of the M2T18TXG13/328 single toggle system is relatively simple. It has two main components, namely an actuation button and a spring-loaded rocking arm. When the button is pressed, the rocking arm swings to the lower position, which causes the electrical contacts to open and the current to halt. When the rocking arm with the button is released, the spring-loaded mechanism brings it back to the upper position and the contacts close again, allowing the current to flow.

Conclusion

The M2T18TXG13/328 rocker switch is a versatile and reliable switch that can be used in different applications such as LED lighting and home appliances. This switch is relatively easy to install and use, and its spring-loaded mechanism makes it very reliable. With it, you can turn on and off your electrical circuits with one button.
