Snap switches

Posted by Anonymous on Monday, November 15, 2004 1:53 PM

A person has given me several Atlas snap switches but I do not know how to wire them to power,or to a SPDT switch on my control panel, or to the snap switch. Will someone please help me?

give me your e-mail via this site and i have all these circuits drawn out on microsoft word in easy to understand drawings...first off...don't connect them to a SP/DT switch because they will burn up the coils if you do..you'll need a snap slide push button momentary switch instead...just e-mail me and i'll send the drawings to you ...Chuck

Also, if you need the pushbutton switches to operate them, let me know. I have some I don't use. You can have them for shipping costs. (probably about $2.00)
