Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1414052A2] The switch has a main body (4) in which a plunger actuator (8) is inserted and operates against a spring (12). Beneath a cover (34) there is an aperture in which is fitted a switch mechanism module (24). Located above this are connectors (74,75) that have projecting pins to engage contacts and have spring clips (88) to retain ends of wires. The connector elements are shaped to latch into an inner housing module (82).
