Title: Need a mains push contact switch.
Post by: Varche on 29 December 2015, 18:53:36

I need to fix the pantry light switch at the MIL.

Simple bit of wiring put in about thirty years ago. The  switch is operated by the opening and closing of the door. I think the switch has gone faulty . Open door and light comes on, shut door , depresses switch and light goes off. Separate 60 watt tube about eight inches long
.

Any advice on a suitable replacement switch please?
