What is a DPDT momentary switch?

Momentary Toggle Switch, ON-OFF-ON, DPDT (ON)-OFF-(ON), Single Pole Single Throw, where (ON) represents momentary on function. This switch can also be wired to reverse polarity on an electric motor commonly used on hatch lifts. This is a Genuine Carling Technologies Toggle Switch.

What are momentary toggle switches?

A toggle switch is a type of electrical switch that is actuated by moving a lever back and forth to open or close an electrical circuit. A momentary toggle switch is actuated only when someone is operating the switch.

What is a DPST switch?

A Double Pole Single Throw (DPST) switch has four different terminals and is often used to connect two source terminals to their respective output terminals (but never to each other). A DPST switch can be used in an “ON/OFF” configuration, where its terminal pairs are either connected (“ON”) or not connected (“OFF”).

How do SPDT switches work?

A Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) switch is a switch that only has a single input and can connect to and switch between the 2 outputs. This means it has one input terminal and two output terminals. For example, a SPDT switch can connect to create a Ready Mode and a Standby Mode in a printer.
