Abstract
A mounting assembly is for an electrical switch. The electrical switch has a heat sink. The mounting assembly includes a switching member, an insulator structured to be located between the switching member and the heat sink, and a separate cover member overlaying the switching member and being structured to secure the switching member and the insulator to the heat sink. The separate cover member includes a body portion and a plurality of protrusions extending outwardly from the body portion. The plurality of protrusions includes a first protrusion and a second protrusion. The switching member is located between the first protrusion and the second protrusion. The plurality of protrusions are structured to extend through the heat sink in order to removably couple the separate cover member and the switching member to the heat sink without requiring a separate fastener to be inserted through the separate cover member.
